[python #LTI-515661]: details on data processing

Greetings!

The field you're looking for is "Temperature_height_above_ground", which looks 
like it currently has levels of 2m, 80m, and 100m. For winds, you're looking 
for "u-component_of_wind_height_above_ground" and 
"v-component_of_wind_height_above_ground". These are available currently for 
heights "10.0 20.0 30.0 40.0 50.0 80.0 100.0 m". I'm guessing the reason for 
the differing heights is so the lowest level correspond to normal observing 
level.

I see these currently listed here:

  
https://thredds.ucar.edu/thredds/ncss/grib/NCEP/GFS/Global_0p5deg/Best/dataset.html

(or in any of the other dataset listings.)

There's no specific documentation using these specifically from Siphon, but 
using the field/variable names I listed above you should be able to use just as 
in any other Siphon example.

Hope this helps,

Ryan
