Consecutive Hours of precip in Southeast US:

• roughly 6.5 days is the maximum using climdex dataset HadEX3
• can see if we can run tests using this for consecutive hours or if there's a lower number we can use
• https://www.climdex.org/access/
• Use CWD Variable for consecutive wet days

I was able to create a bash script that appends all of the files from one directory to all of the files with same name in other directory. We can use this after running Gopal's ASCII_to_LSEG function

It is located in /backup/meteorology/ and the file is called testing_appending.bash

Here is a quick and extremely bare boned workflow for the nldas process. Hopefully we will get more time to add to it this week!
