error in gdas0p5 meteo file

Post by croc »

Hello,
I have found a problem reading the meteo file 20111102_gdas0p5
hyts_std version 5.2.0 gives the error:
At line 339 of file metinp.f
Fortran runtime error: Bad value during floating point read

chk_data version 5.2.0 gives:

Same error using previous versions of the model.
Could you please confirm the error or suggest what I might be doing wrong?
Best regards,

Thank you for letting us know. 20111102_gdas0p5 appears to be unusable. Use GDAS1 or Reanalysis file for November 2, 2011.
