[Ncep.list.nems.announce] NEMS/NMM-B commit Trac ticket #104

[Tom Black]

Developers,

I am ready to commit a set of changes for the NMM-B after Ratko's 
commit.  Moving nests must read nest-resolution surface data from 
external files after they shift.  The data spans the uppermost parent 
and if that domain is large (e.g. global) then the external files are 
very large and take a long time to read in their current binary form.  
Replacing those binary files with netCDF files reduces the read times to 
negligible after nests shift.  Answers are not changed.

In addition an immediate shutdown of the forecast has been added if only 
a single compute task is specified for any domain.

The new code can be seen in:
