grib_to_netcdf: Why do I get the error "Wrong number of fields... Try using the -T option"?
Solution
You try to retrieve data from the ECMWF data archive in NetCDF format but the retrieval fails with this message:
...
- Retrieve the data in its native GRIB format, which supports multiple data values at any one validity time.
Then convert the data from GRIB to NetCDF format using the grib_to_netcdf tool with the -T option. - Retrieve data for each forecast "time" separately, for example for ERA-Interim:
- first with time = 00:00 and all required steps
- then with time = 12:00 and all required steps
