-fix_ncep¶
Introduction¶
-fix_ncep is a "set" option that replaces certain NCEP-defined time ranges by the WMO equivalents. The current (7/2008) wgrib2 needs this option in order to correctly print out the time ranges for NCEP-defined time ranges.
The -fix_ncep option changes the memory image of the grib message. Therefore, if you want the NCEP time range, you must have the -grib or -grib_out option before the -fix_ncep option. Otherwise you will get the WMO time range.
Caution: expect this option to change as more NCEP time ranges are added
Usage¶
Example¶
The above line replaces NCEP time ranges by the WMO equivalents and writes out the new grib data into out_grib.
