Long simulation issue

[Howard]

I am doing a long simulation on GFS 0.5 data 192h

Successful simulation ... did grads post and although the ctl file mentions all precipitation fields

some are not available from 130h on ... all the "....acc..." fields drop out.

I guess that some conf file needs fixing.

Ive done an "open" command and some of the precipitation fields go all the way out to 192h
APCPsfc ...

I'm lost ... can anyone help.

Is your grib file bigger than 2GB?

[Howard]

Yes my Grib file is bigger than 2Gigs

[Howard]

I routinely have GRB2 files of 3.5 GB ... the 192h was 5GB

I routinely have GRB2 files of 3.5 GB

And no problems with those?

The Grads scripts tend to loose it around 130hr on the domain I am using. An most of my runs are 120h, 126h to get a midnight start for New Zealand.

The 192h run ... look fine on all the other fields all the way out to 192h but precipitation some of the precipitation fields started giving errors

ACPCPaccsfc
APCPaccsfc

they display when using a single lat lon point ... but fail when doing a map projection of the domain.

I would still first update g2ctl and gribmap to latest versions, and use -big switch on gribmap line. Try manually first with newest versions.
