Because the timestamp in the WMO header is only accurate to
the minute, the timestamp on an output file can only have that
resolution as well.

The following entry

WMO<tab>^SRUS67 ([A-Z]{4}) ([0-3][0-9])([0-2][0-9][0-6][0-9]) /p(.*)
<tab>FILE<tab>-strip data/currentwwa/1/4.(2:yyyy)(2:mm)(2:dd)3

would create the file

    $HOME/data/currentwwa/KGSP/SVRGSP.200812101654

from the product-identifier

    SRUS67 KGSP 101654 /pSVRGSP
