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

Hi Gilbert,

re: topic area should be datastream, not LDM

No worries.

re: CONDUIT has the 1 degree GFS data

> How much are each per model run in terms of total file size?

Quite frankly, I don't know.  It would be easy enough to write
a pqact.conf action that filed the 1 degree data and then do a quick
'df' to find out how much data is involved.  The other approach is
to run 'notifyme'; send the output to the a log file; and then parse
the log file entries to get the size of the messages.

Here are a two (commented out) actions that Chiz includes with the
GEMPAK releases:

# CONDUIT GFS grids
# ----------------------------------------------
#
# 1.0 degree GFS data
# 2.5 degree GFS data
#CONDUIT        prod/gfs.*pgrb[^2]
#       PIPE    decoders/dcgrib2 -d data/gempak/logs/dcgrib2_CONDUITgfs.log
#       -e GEMTBL=/home/gempak/NAWIPS/gempak/tables
#
# 0.5 degree GFS data
#CONDUIT        prod/gfs.*pgrb2
#       PIPE    decoders/dcgrib2 -d data/gempak/logs/dcgrib2_CONDUITgfs2.log
#       -e GEMTBL=/home/gempak/NAWIPS/gempak/tables

I included these so you can snag the patterns for your own pqact.conf action
or 'notifyme' invocation.

> Thanks!

No worries.

Cheers,

Tom
