Several users have encountered issues when installing the library Eccodes, used to open GRIB files with xarray. It seems that this library can create conflicts with other packages.
Consequently, we made the decision to stop using the GRIB format in the dataset and to convert the GRIB files to the netCDF format which is more common and should pose less intallation issues.
This conversion concerns the land-sea and relief masks and 2D and 3D meteo model outputs.
We will try to convert the files as fast as possible, but meanwhile if you encountered issues with Eccodes, you can still try working on the other parts of the dataset : ground station observations and radar data.
We're sorry for the inconvenience.
