Description

The default value for FV3GFS_FILE_FMT_ICS and FV3GFS_FILE_FMT_LBCS is currently "nemsio". This is an out-dated format that is no longer available operationally (discontinued in March 2021).

Solution

The default should be replaced with one of the other options ("grib2" or "netcdf"). I would suggest "netcdf" as the default since it is the replacement format for native-grid GFS output, but grib2 is also acceptable.

Requirements**

Update the default value for FV3GFS_FILE_FMT_ICS and FV3GFS_FILE_FMT_LBCS to "netcdf" or "grib2".

Acceptance Criteria (Definition of Done)

Update the default value for FV3GFS_FILE_FMT_ICS and FV3GFS_FILE_FMT_LBCS to "netcdf" or "grib2".

Alternative Solutions

Leave the current default, but this is less than ideal, and will only become more obsolete as time moves on

The documentation has been failing for the last week due to the https://www.ncep.noaa.gov website being unresponsive. This site URL has been replaced with https://www.weather.gov/ncep/.

The following two issues have also been addressed in this PR:

* ufs-case-studies WE2E tests fail on Derecho in get_extrn_ics/lbcs #1144 - The ufs-case-studies tests are now successfully running through get_extrn_ics/lbcs without issue.
* The default value for FV3GFS_FILE_FMT_ICS and FV3GFS_FILE_FMT_LBCS should no longer be "nemsio" #979 - The defaults for FV3GFS_FILE_FMT_ICS and FV3GFS_FILE_FMT_LBCS have been changed from nemsio to netcdf. Additionally, the WE2E test configurations that didn't include FV3GFS_FILE_FMT_ICS and FV3GFS_FILE_FMT_LBCS have had them added.
