Jeff,
I haven't played around with WAFs data for a while but did yesterday and today, using the autoftp feature in WINGRIDDS.
I was downloading data for the L and P octants from BOTH NCEP and NWS servers.
It would download fine
During the conversion process from WAFS grid to wingrid, the conversion process would STOP when a 0KB file was encountered. Upon looking in the GRIDDATA folder there was no WAFS grid file made at all.
Even though there could have been data for each of the two octants through a give time (let's say out through 60 hours) but if either one or both of those octant files at 66 hours had 0Kbs the coneversion process would immediately stop.
Hope this makes sense...
Lastly, is there a command that can be used or an option in wingridds to purge the WAFS and Non-WAFS grib files after they have been downloaded? (Similar to such a choice on the PCG32 menu system).
Thanks.
Andy
