Error decoding the grib file when reading/streaming the data from S3 bucket

[kashyapm94]

I am generating the data in grib format using the client and then saving the generated file in the AWS S3 bucket. Now, when I am trying to read the file from the S3 bucket, I am getting an error.

Client code

c = cdsapi.Client(url=URL, key=KEY)
c.retrieve(
    'reanalysis-era5-land',
    {
        'variable': 'soil_temperature_level_4',
        'year': year,
        'month': [
            '01', '02', '03',
            '04', '05', '06',
            '07', '08', '09',
            '10', '11', '12',
        ],
        'day': [
            '01', '02', '03',
            '04', '05', '06',
            '07', '08', '09',
            '10', '11', '12',
            '13', '14', '15',
            '16', '17', '18',
            '19', '20', '21',
            '22', '23', '24',
            '25', '26', '27',
            '28', '29', '30',
            '31',
        ],
        'time': [
            '00:00', '01:00', '02:00',
            '03:00', '04:00', '05:00',
            '06:00', '07:00', '08:00',
            '09:00', '10:00', '11:00',
            '12:00', '13:00', '14:00',
            '15:00', '16:00', '17:00',
            '18:00', '19:00', '20:00',
            '21:00', '22:00', '23:00',
        ],
        'area': [
            np.floor(location[1]*100)/100,
            np.floor(location[0]*100)/100,
            np.ceil(location[1]*100)/100,
            np.ceil(location[0]*100)/100,
        ],
        'format': FORMAT,
    })

Code for reading the file from S3

def get_grib_from_s3(grib_file):
        s3_client = boto3.client('s3')
        bucket = <my_bucket_name>
        try:
            resp = s3_client.get_object(
                Bucket=bucket,
                Key=grib_file
            )
            return resp
        except s3_client.exceptions.NoSuchKey as e:
            raise HTTPException(
                status_code=404,
                detail=e
            )

GRIB_FILE_NAME = <filename>.grib
a = get_grib_from_s3(GRIB_FILE_NAME)

and then I try to decode the streaming value as follows:

a['Body'].read().decode('utf-8')

When I do this, I get the following error:
