This will result in all 48 hour HWFI and H3WI track forecasts to be
aggregated (statistics and scores computed) for each model separately.
As with any MET trouble, try using debug level 4 (-v 4) to see if there
are any more useful log messages.

use of a pre-existing forecast verification library that was developed
at NCAR.


**Q. Why is PrepBUFR used?**

A.
The first goal of MET was to replicate the capabilities of existing
verification packages and make these capabilities available to both
the DTC and the public.

**Q. Why is GRIB used?**

A.
Forecast data from both WRF cores can be processed into GRIB format,
and it is a commonly accepted output format for many NWP models.

**Q. Is GRIB2 supported?**

A.
Yes, forecast output in GRIB2 format can be read by MET. Be sure to
compile the GRIB2 code by setting the appropriate configuration
file options (see Chapter 2).

**Q. How does MET differ from the previously mentioned existing
verification packages?**

A.
MET is an actively maintained, evolving software package that is being
made freely available to the public through controlled version releases.

**Q. How does the MODE tool differ from the Grid-Stat tool?**

A.
They offer different ways of viewing verification. The Grid-Stat tool
provides traditional verification statistics, while MODE provides
specialized spatial statistics.

**Q. Will the MET work on data in native model coordinates?**

A.
