The last column in your file is concentration. The name of the column consists of a pollutant identification string and the vertical level (in meters) of a concentration grid being printed. More details on CON2ASC is found at https://ready.arl.noaa.gov/hysplitusersguide/S341.htm.

Suppose your concentration file is named as hysplit2.bin in the C:\hysplit4\working directory. Running the following command in the working directory: > ..\exec\con2asc -ihysplit2.bin will print the name of the output file. My run showed hysplit2.bin_269_04 which may be examined by using the more co...

If HYSPLIT is installed on your PC, there is a program that converts a concentration output file to a text file. It is called con2asc.exe (on Windows). con2asc.exe is located in the C:\hysplit4\exec directory if the default value is used at the time of installation. It is a console program so it sho...

After a trajectory run with READY (or online HYSPLIT), you will see links to the HYSPLIT SETUP file and the HYSPLIT CONTROL file. You might want to download them and compare them with what goes into your splitr calculation.

It would be ideal to have the same CentOS 7.7.1908 setup to test if the precompiled distribution for CentOS 7.6 would work with 7.7. However, given that both CentOS systems are of the same major release (i.e., 7), the precompiled distribution should probably work.

Thank you for contacting us about accumulated precipitations. One of our scientists looked into the issue you raised and concluded there is no error. Here is the explanation: There is no inconsistency. The GFS 1-degree forecast file used here is at 3-hour intervals and the precipitation is a 6 hour ...

This is a repost of an email inquiry:

GFS 0-240h.
is not correct 6 hrs Accumulated Precipitation.
Correct is 3 hrs (on metgram is 3 hrs Accumulated Precipitation ).
Am I wrong?

Thank you for letting us know about the issue. It has been resolved.

Could you attach the SETUP.CFG and CONTROL files as well? Together with MESSAGE.TXT that you already posted they provide useful information for a diagnosis.
