Hi Mike,

Yes!  I think that makes the most sense.  Awesome.
One other thing that Tiffany had brought up to me, the title in the final 
output plot
of the SkewT and Hodograph is a little misleading, and it might be useful to 
add the
forecast time to that as well.
You could modify the plt.title() call to be something like this to see the 
forecast
time in minutes displayed in the title of the plot:

  plt.title( forecastModel + " " \
          + ob.getLocationName() \
          + "("+ str(ob.getGeometry()) + ")" \
          + ", " + str(ob.getDataTime()) + " " \
          + str(ob.getDataTime().getFcstTime()/60) + " minutes")

I just added the last line and altered the second last line slightly, from what 
currently
exists in the notebook.  I think we will actually update our notebook here in 
the future to
have something more like this as well.
