We recently downloaded version 5.03 here at the Billings office. We run ForecastBuilder with the selection rain/snow only a lot here, and I noticed with this latest version that when we get to that step and toggle rain/snow only it crashes. The error that pops up in alertviz is that timeRangeTD is not defined and it is flagging line 839 from createPrecipTypes in the ForecastBuilder.py procedure. Around that line it references: "mountain offices are mainly using snow level so this section of code may not be used very often now". At Billings, we have snow level grids which are auto-populated mainly because of a regional requirement but we don't use them to generate our rain/snow wx types. Since we have snow level grids but I am trying to tell it to run rain/snow only in step 4 is that causing timeRangeTD to not be defined for some reason?
