Hello,
do you think that the following changes in GFS input/output (starting 19/7/2017 12Z run) will affect WXSIM import data?

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thanks for mentioning this. I don’t think it will cause any problems (hopefully it will just be more accurate), but I’ll check!!

Hi Tom -
I just received an error 6 in wxmain (wxsim) after the 12z GFS model update.
So maybe a few parameters were altered in the gfs update?
After reading the (noaa) notification, it appears to be a major update to the gfs model.
Same error here when my 1800a forecast ran. The 06z GFS was the last good one.
Tom,
Same error #6 here. #-o

Tom,
Same error 6 in wxmain as others have reported.
Steve
Yep, error 6!
same error here

So far I’ve not had any issues with WXSim, WXSimLite however is reporting bad data on the 12Z file when imported. I am using McMahon data in WXSim btw.
Stuart
Took a look at the 12Z GFS data downloaded by WxSim-Lite. If I’m reading the “wspd” column correctly, it’s forecasting 500-plus MPH winds. Perhaps that is what’s causing our problem.
Steve
That’s interesting because the McMahon data shows valid wspd values potentially which is what I use for WXSim. I just checked Bohler data for WXSim and that looked OK. So at least for me the eror is in WXSimLite.
Stuart
I was having the same hanging problem, then switched to McMahon and got a good forecast.

Ditto …

I’m getting error #5 in wxmain, and error #6 in wxmain.
My forecasts are not completing.

OK, checking into this! I had asked Sam about whether the changes should affect our script. He thought they wouldn’t, but maybe they did!
I’ll update soon …
