Scott,

You wrote last week:
Thanks for the quick reply. So does this only affect the runs at NCEP such as the Op20 or Op40? How about those that you run at your location (Bak40, dev or dev2) if I understand this correctly?

Answer:
You are right that it affects only the runs from NCEP. But note that the Op20 and Op40 are not separate runs -- they are all interpolated from a single RUC13 cycle, as shown in the RUC sounding web page (http://rucsounding.noaa.gov) definitions.

Op40 (NCEP 13km RUC on 40km grid, formerly "RUC2") or
Bak40 (Backup 13km RUC on 40km grid, formerly "MAPS") or
Op20 (NCEP 13km RUC on 20km grid) or Bak20 (Backup 13km RUC on 20km grid)
dev (no TAMDAR, 20km) or dev2 (with TAMDAR, 20km) or
