> Hi, > > I'm looking to pull SPC convective outlooks from python-awips for plotting > and was wondering what Datatype they could be found in (i.e., grid, obs, > sfcobs, etc.). > > Thanks in advance for saving me a lot of time searching! > Hello, Unfortunately, I don't believe the SPC Conv Outlooks are available via python-awips. Since they are text products they are stored in a separate database than most of the other datatypes that currently get accessed. We can definitely put this on our list for future builds. Sorry for the inconvenience.
