Hello everyone,
OK, so many TINs were flying around over the past year that I got confused 
about the RUC changing to the RAP, and the 80 km grids being dropped. I 
currently have these in my pqact.conf:
HRS     ^[YZ].Q... KWB. ([0-3][0-9])([0-2][0-9]).*/mRUC
       FILE    hrs/ruc/\2(\1:mm)\1(\1:yy).gbr
HRS     ^[YZ].W... KWB. ([0-3][0-9])([0-2][0-9]).*/mRUC
       FILE    hrs/ruc/\2(\1:mm)\1(\1:yy).grd
Both are invalid; I know the 80 kn was dropped (the "Q") grid, but I 
thought the 40 km "W" grid was staying, just converted to the RUC. Can 
someone help me out here?
What do you mean by invalid?  I just ran this:
pqcat -v -l - -p '^[YZ].W... KWB. ([0-3][0-9])([0-2][0-9]).*/mRUC' > 
/dev/null
and got:
