Dusty,
The sample hurricane Bob data sets are found under the $NAWIPS/gempak/data
directory.
By default, the GEMDATA environmental variable is set in the Gemenviron script
to a real-time data directory, so you won't see the Bob data unless you
set GEMDATA to point to the appropriate tree location. For example:
(you must be working in a directory you have write permission to,
and I'm assuming you have already run the command "source Gemenviron"
so that all the GEMPAK environmental variables are defined for your csh)
)
% setenv GEMDATA $GEMPAK/data
% snlist
SNFILE = $GEMDATA/HRCBOB.SND
AREA = @NM
DATTIM = LAST
SNPARM = pres;hght;tmpc;dwpc;sped;drct
STNDEX =

VCOORD = PRES
OUTPUT = T
MRGDAT = YES
