[Ncep.list.emc.glopara-support] Extending hurricane tracks past 126 h

[Kate Howard]

  Sim,

Yes if you are on vapor then:

/mtb/save/wx23sm/para_scripts/cver_1.1/ush/global_tracker.sh_new

The parallel is set to 126 hrs because "only 120-hr fcst is required" 
for the hurricane tracks for the parallel purposes. I imagine this is 
because a 5 day forecast track is good enough for testing purposes. 
Perhaps someone will correct me if I am wrong.
