@kristinchang3 when you have a time could you please review this PR? It would be useful to see if the demo5 runs without any issue with this PR.

Hi @lee1043 - I am getting a file not found error from the last cell in Demo notebook 5:

The Ex2 directory exists, but looks like the image file cannot be created. I am getting this warning in the 2 cells above with the driver script and I'm wondering if that is causing the issue?

Hi @kristinchang3, Thank you for help on this PR! Could you see where the demo data is coming from, in particular, demo_data or demo_data_tmp? It looks like we have used them mixed in different demos, so we might want to make notebooks consistent for it.

@lee1043 it looks like the results from the driver are being saved to demo_data_tmp and there is one obs json file in demo_data .

@kristinchang3 Thanks for checking it. MJO will take its input from daily data, from obs4MIPs_PCMDI_daily (reference) and CMIP5_demo_timeseries (or CMIP5_demo_data -- need to double check). Let's use demo_data_tmp for now, and worry about unifying demo_data and demo_data_tmp later in a separate PR.
