TASK launch
PURPOSE: Creates initial directory structure and configures the
rest of the workflow for one storm.
This job will delete and recreate the $DATA work area for one HWRF
storm. It sets several flags to turn on and off parts of the
workflow, or disable the entire workflow if there is no storm. All
logic is triggered by the message file sent by the SDM via
setup_hurricane.
Labels:
stormN - storm1-storm7 label tells whether a storm is to be run. IF
the storm is to be run, it tells what the storm is, and who sent
it (NHC or JTWC).
Events:
NoStorm - set if no storm is to be run. The rest of the workflow sees
the event and automatically completes via ecFlow completion clauses.
Pom - Princeton Ocean Model (POM) is requested. This is set for the
North Central Pacific, North East Pacific and North Atlantic basins
in the current system. If this is clear upon completion of the launch
job, the rest of the workflow will automatically skip ocean and
wave coupling.
Wave - Wavewatch 3 (WW3) coupling is requested. This should be set
whenever Pom is set, and enables wave coupling and related
initialization and post-processing jobs. If it is clear upon
completion of the launch job, then the relevant jobs will be set
to completed via ecFlow completion clauses.
Gsi - Gridpoint Statistical Interpolation (GSI) data assimilation is
enabled. This enables the "fgat," "gsi," and "ensda" families of
jobs, as well as the bufrprep and gsi_post jobs. If GSI is
disabled, those jobs are skipped via ecFlow completion clauses.
Ensda - Ensemble Data Assimilation (ENSDA) is requested for this
storm. This flag should only be set if Gsi is also set. If it is
set, the "ensda" family of jobs is run, otherwise they are skipped
via ecFlow completion clauses.
TROUBLESHOOTING
This job will rarely fail since it has little to do; it just sets up
some directories and makes configuration files. If this job fails, it
is likely due to a hardware or other system issue, with one exception...
PROBLEM: Why is there no storm?
The launcher does whatever the NOAA SDM tells it to do. The NOAA SDM
uses a script called setup_hurricane to create message files read by
the launcher job's JHWRF_LAUNCH script. If the launcher job decided
not to run a storm, then that means the SDM told it not to. If there
should have been a storm, then it likely means there was a
communication problem, preventing data from getting from NHC or JTWC
to the NOAA SDM.
For NHC/CPHC storms, the NOAA SDM has a direct line to the on-call
NHC/CPHC person, who can confirm the absence of a storm. It may then
be possible to manually edit the message and nstorms files to add the
storm in. Alternatively, you could rerun setup_hurricane, but that
may change storm priorities. In that case, you must rerun the entire
HWRF cycle (all storm slots). All of this is technical possibility;
there may be procedural reasons why this cannot be done.
For JTWC storms, the NOAA SDM has the direct line to the JTWC duty
officer, but there isn't much that can be done. JTWC lacks any way to
send vitals after the T+3 deadline. Hence, a JTWC storm that is
missed, is missed.
