[gradsusr] Parsing Out 3-hour APCP from New FV3-GFS

[Thomas Robinson]

Aaron,

I went to
https://nomads.ncep.noaa.gov/pub/data/nccf/com/gfs/prod/gfs.20190704/00/ and
searched for gfs.t00z.pgrb2.0p25.grib2, but it did not exist.  Are you sure
you are using the right file name?  There is a gfs.t00z.pgrb2.0p25.anl
<https://nomads.ncep.noaa.gov/pub/data/nccf/com/gfs/prod/gfs.20190704/00/gfs.t00z.pgrb2.0p25.anl>
.
