[thredds] CONUS 12KM data question

[John Caron]

Hi Robert:

The NAM conus 12km on motherlode has indeed been having problems recently. Its still not exactly right (some new fields and levels are being sent) but we should have it sorted out by tommorrow. If you see any further problems after that, please let us know.

BTW, Ive added you to the thredds mailing list.
