Forecast met data not supported #15

Hi all,

I am using this excellent code to generate ARL files for running STILT. It seems that something has changed with HYSPLIT since the creation of this tutorial. I get the following error message in the stilt.log file:

STOP 900 HYSPLIT - Initialization HYSPLIT version: hysplit.v5.1.0 Last Changed Date: 2021-05-13 NOTICE main: using namelist file - SETUP.CFG ERROR metset: the use of forecast meteorological data is not supported with this version. User registration is required for computations with forecast data files. Failed to output /scratch/07351/tg866507//cfox/out/by-id/202405141830_-74.9866_40.2197_50/PARTICLE_STILT.DAT

Can you help me to understand what I'm doing wrong, or if there is another version I can access?

Thanks!

After looking a bit more, I was able to find a registration page to get the "registered version" of HYSPLIT that allows one to run with forecast meteorology. One issue is not knowing where in this code to replace the files needed to use the "registered" version. Any help would be appreciated!
