[MITgcm-support] OBCS Error with 36km Arctic config

[Zhang, Yanxu]

Hi Alessandro,

I faced exactly the same error with yours. Later I realized that the boundary conditions only contain 128 records (i.e. DEC. 1991 to JUL. 2002).
So the program will complain if you are running outside of this time window.
