[RegCNET] Bug in the interactive lake model

[Taha Al Hosary]

Dear all,
When I ran the RegCM model I found that the results of precipitation amount changes in whole by beginning of period. What is the most appropriate start for good predict for the rainfall?
Best Regards,
Taha

Dear RegCM developers,

I'm running RegCM model coupled with Hostetler lake model for a cold  
time period that ice and snow would be present over the lakes. I'm  
getting the reasonable values for ice, temperature and evaporation  
over the lakes, but the snow values are always zero.
I've checked the lake.F and ice.F routines. The precip values which I  
have printed from Ice. F are zero, while there are big amount of  
precip and hence snow values outputted from the atmospheric model in  
the SRF field. It seems that the precip isn't being passed into the  
ice routine from the BATS and atmospheric model.

Would you please verify this bug and let me know how to solve this  
error.

Many thanks,
Azar
