[CONDUIT #RFO-442890]: GFS upgrade

Hi Carissa,

I don't think we need anything from you, and yes, we are still going to
send a note to the CONDUIT using community about what they would like
to see added to the datastream.

Question:

- does the availability of the 0.25 deg GFS data mean that the 0.5 deg
  GFS data will no longer be available?

  If yes, it essentially means that the GFS must be upgraded to the
  0.25 deg fields.

  If no, it means that there is time to do an orderly transition to
  the 0.25 deg fields

  The issue is really whether the CONDUIT relays and end-users can
  accommodate the 4x (or more) increase in data volume that would/will
  occur with the relay of the 0.25 deg data.

Comment:

- Lately I have been spending my time trying to sort out some things
  in the NOAAPort SBN that we believe may be GRIB2 coding mistakes

  I have not written you or Becky (by the way, who is the correct
  person to contact about problems with NOAAPort-delivered data?)
  because I wanted to be absolutely sure that our opinion that some
  things are not being coded correctly is absolutely correct.

Cheers,

Tom
