RFC 12812 - add the GDAS WDQMS (WIGOS Data Quality Monitoring System) job

On WCOSS2, implement GFS v16.3.16. The GFS v16.3.16 update adds the GDAS WDQMS (WIGOS Data Quality Monitoring System) data
which is 6-hourly summaries of observation reports.

The objective of this new job is to:

  • support the WMO Integrated Global Observing System (WIGOS) WDQMS project
  • ensure that WMO observational data and products are reliable and correspond to agreed-upon needs
  • 6-hourly summaries include surface (synop), upper-air, and surface marine (ship and buoy) observations

Was to be implemented on June 26, 1400Z to 1900Z; postponed due to College Park hardware issues; was implemented July 2, 1400Z to 2000Z.

RFC 12604 - Upgrade to OBSPROC v1.2.0

On WCOSS2, implement the OBSPROC v1.2.0 upgrade along with downstream models' updates. This upgrade will:

  • Expand the global observation datasets (gfs and gdas) with high vertical resolution radiosonde profiles, and high spatial and temporal resolution satellite winds tailored for hurricane events.
  • Expand the rap observation dataset with high vertical resolution radiosonde profiles. It will also increase the volume of mesonet observations across all regional networks and expand the capacity of SDMEDIT list entries per observation type.
  • Several internal BUFR-lib related arrays were increased to accommodate increasing obs data volumes.
  • A number of obs data sets were added to NOMADS (see SCN).
  • Turn off the obsproc_air_now job since the EPA AirNow data was stopped.

On WCOSS2, updated the GFS to v16.3.9 to implement a temporary fix to allow the satingest changes to be implemented on August 29 without causing GSI to crash. Issue with the CRTM means that GSI will crash unless NOAA-21 radiances are switched off.
