[GEMPAK #DGZ-323433]: Making sense of GEMPAK NIDS colors

Hi Harry,
GEMPAK color tables (for reflectivity, for example) are not organized by
matching 1:1 a value (dBZ) to a color (in RGB format), but rather a range of
colors are provided (from blue to green to yellow and so forth) which are then
proportionally scaled for a range of values (say, -20 to +95 dBZ).
