[gradsusr] Different GFS Variables on OpenDAP versus FTP

[Mark Sponsler]

Hi Marian,
I'm trying to use Wesley's Fast Downloading of Grib Part2. 

It uses get_gfs.pl

When I inventory the gfs files, the acpcp and csnow variables are not present. 

Where are you getting your grib files from?

Can you provide the exact url please?

It looks like you have what I'm looking for. 

Thanks,
Mark
