[GEMPAK #QQR-949309]: nagrib2 table override with g2tbls



Hi Dave,

Any update on this?  Have you tried dcgrib2 instead of nagrib2?

I'd like to see what I can make work but I'm not able to find a source for the 
HWRF grib2 files.  Can you provide me a link or perhaps a single grib2 file to 
work with?
