Hi,
Passing along an issue identified by one of my forecasters and our ITO. Please let me know if you can identify what the problem is.
- I ran forecast builder normally with the end time toggled to extended in step one. The tool ran properly with all grids compiling properly. A key thing to note though is that I set the finalize and P-type to run automatically.
- Then, we got talking about Temps during an east wind period and decided we needed to make some edits after FB ran. We made these edits and I went to use FB to re-compile the hourlies.
- This is where the issue occurred. It started when I set the time range to start at "highlighted time range" and end at "highlighted time range", turning off the Populate step, I had the Analyze/adjust step set to manual, and the Finalize step set to automatically run. The P-type step was also set to auto run and all others were turned off. After continuing past step one and re-calced the hourlies based on Max/Min values, I would run into a problem where the non-3 hr grids were not filling in on the finalize step.
- To fix this, we tried setting the finalize step to manual. After calcing Ts from Max/Mins we clicked the finalize step (again, in its manual setting) and it calced and filled in the hourlies as it should have.
- So again, the bug seems to be when the auto-run feature is turned on and the end time is set to "highlighted time range" instead of "Extended".
Thanks,
Mike
