open-data-registry: GEFS Re-forecast files missing

This is not necessary an exhaustive list of missing files, But 2004102400/p01/Days:1-10 is missing a lot of files. The idx files are there, not the actual grib files. Here I have 76 items, here instead I have 122.

Thanks!

Hi @chiaral, the issue that you found in 2012051700 has been corrected and sent to AWS.

@chiaral The changes that were explained in my previous message have been propagated to AWS. You should update the 2006033000 data only. Previously, the data labelled as “2006033000” in the filename was actually 2004033000 data for days 1-10. There is no need to update the 2004033000 data.

Hello! I found something not missing but erroneous in the precipitation (it appears both in tp and acpcp) for one month so far. I have not done an exhaustive analysis, I bumped into this by pure luck.

for the whole month of June 2006 tp and acpcp are off for the first 2 time steps. (0-3 and 0-6) The issue tho is only for the 0-3 because if I do 0-6 minus 0-3 I have looked at a handful of other variables and they seem all ok, but in all honestly I have not looked at all of them. Also I picked 2006-06 by chance, so I am not sure how pervasive this is. I will do a little more random checks, but maybe you are aware of this issue?

The f03 and f06 fixes for June 2006 have recently been sent to AWS.

Hi Chiara,

We are continuing to fix the data issues that you have found.

  1. The missing data from 2004101700 is now available on the EMC FTP: ftp://ftp.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/GEFSv12/reforecast/2004/10/17/. I believe this data is also on AWS, but I will confirm with my coworker that she finished processing this data when she returns from vacation.
  2. With thanks to my coworker, she has corrected the time coordinates for 2006033000 for ugrd_hgt and vgrd_hgt. These can be found on AWS: https://noaa-gefs-retrospective.s3.amazonaws.com/index.html#GEFSv12/reforecast/2006/2006033000/c00/Days:1-10/
  3. We are working on making those corrections to f03 and f06 for June 2006.

Thank you.

Thank you for bringing these data issues to our attention. We are working on fixing the issues you brought up on github (https://github.com/awslabs/open-data-registry/issues/1994). My coworker is fixing and sending the data for 2004102400, 2006033000 and 2006033000 to AWS. I believe she has mostly completed this process, but I will confirm with her when she returns from vacation.

Meanwhile, we are verifying and sending this data to our FTP server (ftp://ftp.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/GEFSv12). Please note that this FTP data cannot be accessed through any modern internet browser, but it can be publicly accessed using tools such as the ftp command (e.g. ftp ftp.emc.ncep.noaa.gov).

  1. The missing data from 2004102400 is now available on this FTP: ftp://ftp.emc.ncep.noaa.gov/GEFSv12/reforecast/2004/10/24/
  2. We are working on fixing 20041017 and 2006033000.
  3. Regarding the erroneous precipitation values for f03 and f06, this is a known issue and a fix has been applied to most of the cases in the reforecast dataset. We are looking into June 2006 and will work on fixing this.

Thank you for the additional information. We have a scientist looking into this. Our team will reach back out once we have a resolution.

Thank you
