GFS data for forecasting

[administrator]

Hi Ton.

It would be worth reporting that in the WxSim board and hopefully Tom will see it. If WxSimate is creating the file it seems odd that WxSim can’t find it! Have you looked in the file after WxSimate has finished to see if it has anything in it?

not so here. WXSIM keeps telling me that it cannot find or see wdata.txt.
However, I confirmed that I created that file just fine using wxsimate. I’ m at al loss for now.

Hi Ton

Have you tried turning off autoforcast and manually import the data in WXSIM - at that point you should choose your datafile from WXSIMATE. When you have done that you can turn on your autoforcast again.

Hope that helps

Best regards,

Henrik

I’m sad to tell you that the WXSIM forecasts I am getting are fairly wrong at the moment.
It’s snowing right now and next night it will be freezing -4 to -6 celsius locally.
WXSIM does not show any of this and says someting like Foggy and +3 degrees C.

Ton do a manual import and make sure that on that screen you have the RAOB and GFS/READY option radio buttons checked. I found that mine were missing after I lost the import file name as well.
