Describe the New Use Case

With the newest feature of MET offering users the opportunity to utilize separate climatologies for forecast and observational datasets, a new use case is being created to demonstrate this capability. Data is provided from CPC and features the new SFS model output

Use Case Name and Category

As this is verifying forecasts with multiple climatologies and applies to the SFS datasets, the use case will reside in the S2S category.
Naming of the use case will follow:
GridStat_fcstSFSBaseline_obsGHCNCAMS_climoSFSandGHCNCAMS_separateClimo

Input Data

Fcst: SFS Baseline data (2m temp fields)
Obs: GHCN_CAMS
Fcst climo: SFS Baseline monthly files (prepared outside of METplus)
Obs climo: GHCN_CAMS monthly file (prepared outside of METplus)

Acceptance Testing

Describe tests required for new functionality.
