The Weather Forecasting Forum

ezweather, It's a little hard to read the scaled down images, but they look pretty similar to me. If there are minor differences in where isotherms are it's probably a result of different smoothing algorithms, and/or different data being used (if the site you want to emulate is using only a certain ...

"Digital Atmosphere attempts to use the newest observation if multiple observations appear." Hmmm, are you sure? I had always found that DA would plot the first obs and ignore any later ones (unless you manually limited it in the panel to i.e. last 20 minutes or so). Problem was if you li...

I spoke with Tim about the Mercator projection plotting issue, and we are going to work on fixing that with a patch. I will try to get as many of the other things mentioned in this thread worked into the patch as well, especially fixes. We'll make an announcement in this forum when the patch is read...

Thanks, Chris, that's helpful.

Chris,

Is this a problem Tim is already aware of? If not can you please describe the problem for me so I can look into it? Thanks.

Greg,

Yes, we would definitely like to have continued feedback. Thank you very much for this particular set of comments! I will pass them on to Tim and add them to the list above as appropriate.

It occurs when a data record structure doesn't fit the expected structure and accidentally reads past the end of the file. There are sometimes changes to the data structures in Digital Atmosphere; for example this year the meteorological data point structure used in ALL imported observations was ch...

Tim made a change to the contact form that should have fixed the problem. If anyone has further trouble with it, please let me know and I will address it.

Shannon

Thanks for that extra info, George. I'll pass it on to Tim.

Thanks, George. Tim looked into the code and here's his reply: I checked and we are actually missing the pressure trendlines in the WeatherSymbols font. This is not a problem on your computer or installation. I'm not sure whether they were not added when we developed it years ago or if they got stri...
