[gradsusr] %f3 gribmap template starting at different fct time steps

[Wesley Ebisuzaki - NOAA Federal]

All,

 Sorry - accidental send

1) edit ctl file
   old: tdef 9 linear 03Z27Apr2015 3hr
   new: tdef 10 linear 00Z27Apr2015 3hr

2) Make sure that you include a gfs.t00z.pgrbf000.grib2 file

    Since there may not be a precip in the fhr=0 file, you have
    add at variable that is in the fhr=0 file.

Yes, g2ctl could be made to handle the case here fhr=0 is not present.

Wesley
