Re: New RAOB Videos

As the RAOB videos are being developed, if anyone has a special request for a video for a particular RAOB feature or function, just let me know and I'll bump up the priority for that subject.

Re: Skew T Script

Thanks for the "php" information ... now I have something else to study up on. And for Gary's original question, RAOB can now retrieve sounding data form one site, create a SkewT image, and FTP it to another site, every 12 hours.
