I'd like to extract a sub-region from a grib2 data file (GFS data from NOAA), writing the results into a separage grib2 file. I'd prefer it if I could use a lat/lon bounding box (the GFS data is on a regular lat/lon grid) but can deal with converting the latitudes/longitudes to grid coordinates.
I've tried some things wgrib2 but am running into configuration problems. None of the documented tricks directly address this. Before I go further down that route, which will probably require compiling from source, I'd like to confirm that (a) wgrib2 can actually do what I want and (b) fully understand the syntax for doing so. What looks like the relevant option for wgrib2, -small_grib, is marked as "beta", and it's not clear if "small grib" is just a term used in the help messages or if it is different from a "regular" grib file all together.
Alternately, if there are other tools/approaches for achieving the same ends, I'd like to know about them.
