* Atlantic anomaly in 79-80 -the same issue in MERRA ([http://merra-reanalysis.blogspot.com/2008/10/known-issue-1-east-atlantic-anomaly.html]) ???? Steve Bloom identified anomalies associated with two stations - 99012 (~ weather ship Lima) in Atlantic off Portugal, and 99018 (~ weather ship Quebec) in the Pacific.

* Fix for blacklisted observations from Singapore station (ID 48698), ADUPA files were processed using code delivered by Meta for original MERRA input (~/Applications/NCEP_Paqc/modify_bufr);formerly blacklisted data were from 7/22/1998 - 02/23/2000 ([https://progress.nccs.nasa.gov/trac/esma/ticket/72])

* The prepbufr files received from NCEP after 12/29/2020 00z had already been processed through their PREVENTS step and thus had the temperatures for surface marine and surface land observations converted to virtual temperature. The MERRA2 preprocessing carried out the VIRTMP conversion a second time. A program to scan the input file to determine if the VIRTMP processing had already been done was added to the preprocessing QC, and the MERRA2 run was wound back to 1 June 2021. Note that between 12/29/2020 and 5/31/2021 the screening program would need to be disabled and virtual temperature calculated a second time if one wished to reproduce the MERRA2 results. Or, just use the already processed prepbufr file from after the prepQC archived from MERRA2 as input instead of redoing the preprocessing.
