Jeff,

I'm pretty sure we have dealt with this issue in the past and thought it was all cleared up.

The feathers on the wind "barbs" are not displaying correctly.

Thank you,

Kevin,

HEY!!!!...where did you get NOGAPS GRIB from??? Another clasic example of the Latitudes getting inverted (North is South & South is North). Do a ALAT command & all you numbers in the N Hemi will be negative.

NGRB2PCG32 will need to be updated to accomidate this. File names & download locations please...

Thanks,
Jeff

Jeff,

Here is where I'm getting the NOGAPS grib from:

ftpprd.ncep.noaa.gov/pub/data/nccf_backup/pub/data/model/grid/grib/nogaps

file names: nogaps_20061031##f***
##= 00(z) or 12(z) ***= forecast hour - see listing on ftp server for exact times.

Enjoy!

Kevin

Kevin,

Boy...those NCEP folks are sneeky...hiding that in the backup directory where nobody would think to look.

Thanks for the heads-up.

BTW - I have delivered a present for you ;-)

Ya, except me. I will look high and low, far and wide to find grib data! :D
