[AWIPS #ITB-898135]: Southern Hemisphere Wind Plots

> Unidata/AWIPS,
>
> I was looking at some data for the Southern Hemisphere and found that the 
> wind barb plots are incorrect when going south of the equator, a sample is 
> provided below at 250Mb.
>
> Here is another sample of surface wind plot data. The wind barbs (5-10kt) and 
> flags (50kt) or greater need to be plotted opposite to what they are in the 
> Northern Hemisphere.

> Here is how the wind barbs should plot south of the equator.

> A second example.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. I will add this to our list to 
address.

Thanks,
