I’m back at it, again. Everyone here keeps making more tea possible :)
If you want to learn more, please visit our website.
Just gathering interest for a XZH order I’m planning. The format here is unique… I am going to pick it all out; for those who want more structure and organization, this probably isn’t for you right now.
If you’re interested let me know. I cannot make any decisions until I know how many people I have and then figure out dollar amounts from everyone. I’m in no rush!
For more information, please visit xzh.
I already have the 2007 Manzhuan and I’m looking at some possible vertical tastings with their 2013 to 2017 productions; yes they are newer, but I am trying to gauge what I might want to pick up early on too.
This is seperate from what I’m doing on my shop, this is me getting some personal ‘special stash’ material and letting others jump in with me to make what would be only be one cake for myself into possible… a chunk of many!

Hi Mike, I'm glad you've been able to make some progress. Let me see if I can help with your current questions. > 1) ...I have not been able to plot for different forecast hours for a > specific > model run.

So this output, should actually vary. I mean even the output you've pasted in here has at least two times: 2020-08-27 00:00:00 2020-08-27 06:00:00 If you print out the content of the variable cycles, you'll see the unique values: cycles = DataAccessLayer.getAvailableTimes(request, True) print('cycles', cycles) So, that will give you the times of available data for unique ref times. And then from there, when you go to request the forecast data, you can pick which cycle you're interested in. The current notebook always selects the last time in that cycle array: fcstRun = DataAccessLayer.getForecastRun(cycles[-1], times) But you can change the index on that cycles[-1] call to the getForecastRun method. Does this help at all? > 2) How can I ask which models are available. I see in the code GFS is > specified: > forecastModel = "GFS" > I've tried this, but don't know how to specify indentifierKey: > *awips.dataaccess.DataAccessLayer.getIdentifierValues(request, identifierKey)* > This again seems like a catch 22 because the sample code is adding an > identifier, but how do you know what they are in the first place? For this issue, if you look at the line after the one setting the forecastModel variable, you'll see: request.addIdentifier("reportType", forecastModel) So, what you're really asking is what are all the values for the identifier "reportType". You can get that answer by adding the following line to your notebook: print('reportType vals:', DataAccessLayer.getIdentifierValues(request, 'reportType') This will give you the following output: reportType vals: ['ETA', 'GFS'] Where ETA is actually NAM 80km, and GFS is obviously the GFS. Let me know if I've helped clarify your questions. The available times data is always a bit confusing for me and I'm not entirely sure I have a great handle on it, but hopefully I can help you get to what you need.
