There is a version of cnvgrib called cnvgrib21_gfs that works.<br>

I was able to reproduce your problem using the operational<br>

cnvgrib utility at NCEP. The problem seems fixable but<br>

<div>Hi,</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I知 running into an issue with the resulting grib1 file produced from converting a long range (>=264 hr forecast) GFS grib2 file with the cnvgrib utility.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I致e attached the initial grib2 file I知 working with as an example - this file contains only my variables of interest.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I want to convert this file to grib1, which I do using the following:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1.) wgrib2 gfslr2015111912hr384.grb2 -grib temp.grb2</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>2.) cnvgrib -g21 temp.grb2 gfslr2015111912hr384.grb</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>When I run wgrib on the file grib1 file, it gives the following output:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>
<div>1:0:d=15111912:TMP:kpds5=11:kpds6=105:kpds7=2:TR=10:P1=1:P2=128:TimeU=1:2 m above gnd:384hr fcst:NAve=0</div>

</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I致e put in bold the the issues I知 seeing - those variables are giving me undefined values when I try to plot them, which I assume is due to the above issue.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I think #43 at the following link describes this problem, so it seems to be a known issue:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><a href="http://ftp.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/wd51we/wgrib2/tricks.wgrib2" target="_blank">http://ftp.cpc.ncep.noaa.gov/wd51we/wgrib2/tricks.wgrib2</a></div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I tried running the suggestion in #43 on my initial grib2 file, then ran cnvgrib but I get the same bad results with the grib1 file.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Is their another workaround to this problem I could try?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The versions of the utilities I知 running are below:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>wgrib2 v0.1.9.4</div>
<div>wgrib v1.8.0.13f</div>
<div>cnvgrib-1.1.4</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks for any help you can provide.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Cheers,</div>
<div>Sam</div>
