[python #DVT-547480]: help on NCSS

Hi,

Siphon is not looking at individual files, but rather the THREDDS Data Server 
is a providing access to a virtual dataset that combines the output from 
multiple files.

If you're having trouble accessing certain times, the data may not be 
available, you may need to adjust the call to `datetime.utcnow()`. If I try to 
request data beyond the time available in the dataset, I get:

HTTPError: Error accessing 
http://thredds.ucar.edu/thredds/ncss/grib/NCEP/GFS/Global_0p25deg/Best?var=Temperature_surface&time=2019-06-03T15%3A09%3A58.848943&west=-111&east=-100&south=35&north=43&accept=netcdf4
Server Error (400: Requested time 2019-06-03T15:09:58.848Z does not intersect 
actual time range 2019-05-13T00:00:00Z - 2019-06-01T12:00:00Z)

This took a lot of work for me to hit however. Can you send me the actual error 
you receive so we can identify whether this is actually a problem with the 
server?

Thanks,

Ryan
