New simplified codes to download NOAA GEFS operational forecasts.
Description
There are 3 new scripts to download GEFS and GFS forecasts, that replaced the previous structure.
get_gefsWaves.sh will download GEFS wave forecast, for the specific variables of interest.
get_gefsAtmos.sh will download GEFS atmospheric forecast, for the specific variables of interest.
get_gfsWaves.sh will download GFS wave forecast, for the specific variables of interest.
they utilize two pearl codes, get_grib.pl and get_inv.pl, to be able to fetch only the specific variables of interest.
Issue(s) addressed
It has reduced the number of dependencies and complexity involved in the previous version.
The 2 dependencies are now: wgrib2 and nco, only. The codes are shorter and easier to understand and customize.
