Steve,
I am trying to change the NOAA report naming convention to auto-sort by name, ie for the monthly reports "NOAA_MO_"yyyy_mm".txt" so they auto sort and yearly to "NOAA_YR_"yyyy".txt".
The change for monthly reports works fine, but Cumulus accepts but doesn't use the change for the yearly reports. Next time you do a major rewrite please consider reverse date naming convention for all data files? Makes them easier to find and they auto-sort, particularly once you get more than one years data.
Welcome to the Cumulus Support forum.

Re: Cannot change NOAA Report Naming convention
Yes, the auto-saved ones use the supplied format, but manually saved ones don't. You can of course change the file name to anything you want when you do a manual save. I'll have a fix out shortly.
