Replace italics below with details for this issue.

Describe the Problem

The weather regime classification is performed separately on the model and observations. Both are ordered by frequency (the most frequent regime listed first). Because of this, sometimes the regime numbers don't match (i.e. regime 1 in the observation may have the same weather pattern as regime 2 in the model or something similar). Reordering is currently done after the classification text file is written but before the plots, which means the numbers are inconsistent between the plots and files. This reordering needs to happen before the text file is written. This reordering needed to be moved from the Kmeans program in METcalcpy to a separate program, and then the program needs to be called at a different time from METplus

Expected Behavior

Reordering needs to happen before the text file is written

Environment

Describe your runtime environment:
*1. linux
2. OS: (e.g. RedHat Linux, MacOS)
*3. python 3.7.9

To Reproduce

Run the weather regime use case. The case runs successfully but the output is inconsistent
