James,

You can use sncross or sncross2 to view the data. Also GARP has
the profiler time/height display.

When using sncrosss/2 use HGHT as the vertical coordinate since the
data are given in meters above ground. Sncross2 allows you to specify
a color range for the WIND barbs- thats the only difference.

An example is shown:
