<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hi Jennifer, </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>thanks for looking into this! </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have attached the output of the gribmap/grib2scan
and the ctl file (which does not contain a edef declaration). I am not
sure if I need an edef declaration, though, since I am treating each member as
a separate model and create control files for each independently?
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>In case I will not get anywhere ... is there a
server that has grib1 data of the gfs ensembles still? </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Cheer and thanks again, </FONT></DIV>
