GRIB Files
Hi everyone! Can anybody tell me if the GRIB facility is working in the new version yet? I've delved into GRIB downloading, very superficially, and wondered if anyone had any wisdom to impart
Thanks.
Thanks.

Re: GRIB Files
Hi Dave,
I use the GRIB options all the time. In Digital Atmosphere I import the RDPS Sea Level Pressure & Thickness for the background isobars on Forecast Lab. I've been doing it 3 times a week since maybe late 2021 when I added the functionality.
I would advise not trying to do anything too complicated with the GRIB functionality, but most of the defaults should work fine for basic charts. I'm not sure if any ECMWF HRES data is available anywhere (whatever happened to their Open Access policy anyway?) but if it shows up somewhere I will add it.
