[LDM #YIO-363470]: How big are the worldwide GFS model grids...

Hi Gilbert,

I moved your inquiry from the support-ldm topic area to support-datastream
since it is a data-related question, not LDM.

The CONDUIT datastream has the 1 degree GFS data in addition to the
0.5 degree GFS data.  In fact, one of the questions for the CONDUIT
community is whether or not the 1 degree grids can be dropped because
the higher resolution, 0.5 degree grids are also available.

They are in CONDUIT, not HRS or NGRID.
