I`m running a script that calls up multiple basemaps/locations, and plots slp and fronts for each map then exports them.
Do I need to ingest the downloaded data for each basemap in the script. I just didn`t want to create unnecessary work for my PC if I don`t have to!!
Sample script below with only one ingest command. It works all except the fronts will not display on the second basemap loaded.

However, for the below example everything plots perfectly but only because I am ingesting the synop data twice. Do I need to ingest all the data for each location/map?
