In Response To: RUC snow cover fix (Stan Benjamin)

Tomorrow, a change package is planned to be implemented for the RUC model at 12z. This package includes 3 items:
- a fix to the snow cover fix discussed previously in the RUC forum (see http://ruc.noaa.gov/forum/f2/Welcome.cgi/read/2052)
- improvement to cloud retention in short-range RUC forecasts from 3-d RUC cloud/hydrometeor analyzed fields (using METAR, GOES, background 1h forecast)
- correction to run-total accumulated precipitation fields.

A pdf presentation with a bit more detail on these changes and some pictures is provided in http://ruc.noaa.gov/gif/ruc13/RUC-snow-cloud-fix-31mar09.pdf.
