Jimmy,

Are you running SNTSER for a time series of theta at 250MB?

What times are in the file 000123_upa.gem?
Your taxis is - 24/00-26/12, so make sure these times are in your file.
If you aren't sure, use DATTIM=list.

Also, your YAXIS should be set for the data values of theta at 250 mb.
It appears to still be set for SNPROF's skewt. Either set YAXIS=
or seth the YAXIS max/min based on theta values, probably 300 to 400K.

If you are trying to do a time series cross section using SNCROSS, then
you should be using CXSTNS and not AREA as shown below.
