Re: 20051104: 20051104: sncross

Thanks Steve-
The file is small so I attached it.
You should be able to use snlist to see whats in there.
Everything should be in the proper order, pressure decreasing. Hmm...except for the last few points. The composites had few samples in the upper troposphere so pressure may fluctuate up or down. I'll bet thats the problem. I have unattached the file... Ill fix it and see what happens. Thanks for the help.

Jimmy,

The hundredths units on pressure shouldn't cause a problem.
Your soundings should be ordered bottom to top (the only
problem going the other way is that filter for the winds won't work).
Presumably, there aren't any negative or 0 pressure levels.
Are they monotonic in your file?

I'd be happy to take a look if you want to post one of your files.

Hi Steve-
I checked and my file does have pressure as the coordinate (1st variable
in the packing file, first variable in the snedit file). My variable,
PRES has two place after the decimal, (978.16 for example). Would that
make any difference?
I also dont have "standard levels". I am doing sounding composites so I
have pressure averaged making it highly unlikely I will hit, say, 500 mb.
Would any of this cause a problem?

Jimmy,

The first parameter in your parameter list that created the
upperair file should be pressure so that the log vertical coordinate
is valid. The error message seems to indicate that PRES is not the valid
coordinate for your upperair file.

Hi-
I am trying to use a home built gempak file (for which I can plot
soundings) to make a cross section in sncross. I get the error -10 for
sncross. I have tried many permutations of the variables but can't make it
work.
Am I doing something obviously wrong?
I am using gempak version 5.7.2p2
Thanks
