[gradsusr] GRIB2 problem on GrADS -alt_gmp-

[Wesley Ebisuzaki - NOAA Federal]

Nicholas,

The tdef line of the ctl file is wrong.  Try

tdef 12 linear 06Z04dec2013 3hr

For the %f2 option, the date code has to be the starting time of the
forecast
even though you don't have this data file.  The max forecast is 33 hours, so
you need 12 for the number of 3 hour time steps.  To make the index
file,

   alt_gmp -i cat.ctl

The same tdef line should also work with the g2ctl created ctl file.

Wesley
