I post rNOMADS news there too. The account is @rnomads_r. Check it out if you are having real time model download issues...if it hasn't posted anything for 6 hours it may mean something has gone wrong with NOMADS. Alternatively it could be my Ph. D. advisor shut off one of his computers for some reason. Either way, contact me. There was an issue where ArchiveGribGrab was not working. I've fixed it and will submit a version to CRAN shortly. In the meantime, email me if you need a working version. Finally, the "gens" model product is now two: gens_bc and gens_ndgd. See: https://nomads.ncep.noaa.gov/txt_descriptions/GFS_Ensemble_bias_corrected_doc.shtml https://nomads.ncep.noaa.gov/txt_descriptions/GFS_Ensemble_ndgd_bias_corrected_doc.shtml for the difference between them.

If you are using https=TRUE on GetDODSDates and NOMADSRealTimeList, I have removed these arguments as they are no longer necessary. NOMADS is fully transitioned to https. Please check your code and remove them if need be. Thanks, Danny
