Update in operations to address two issues:

RFC 8260 - On WCOSS, placed CrIS NPP channels in monitor mode for the GFS, HRRR, HWRF, and RAP models. This was done to minimize possible degraded analyses due to the CrIS NPP data anomaly/outage that began on May 21, 2021. Implemented on May 28 at 1145Z.

RFC 8313 - Upgrade the GFS to v16.1.2, which includes the following two fixes:

  • an updated UPP GTG subroutine to increase
    • wind threshold to 500 m/s,
    • height threshold to 1.0E7 m, and
    • temperature threshold to 3000 K.
      Also instead of aborting, only send out “out of bound” warning messages when thresholds are exceeded.
  • an updated GFS post processing script so that the GFS post-processing job will not crash and the generation of GFS pgb files will continue even if the WAFS fails.

These changes address recent failures of the GFS WAFS post-processing job which produce turbulence products, which then caused the generation of GFS pgb files and downstream products to come to a halt.

Implemented on June 22 at 1430Z.
