Re: [conduit] NDFD Grids on CONDUIT, adding WBGT

I agree it is a very useful index!

My vote is to add it with a fist-pund-on-the-table yes. This is a considerably more accurate way to measure heat stress to the body, and athletics departments at collegiate and the pro levels love it.

Greetings all,

Last week, Daryl H. brought up that while some NDFD grids are on CONDUIT, the recent addition of Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) is not.

I recently joined the Unidata Users Committee and brought this up at our meeting last week.  After some discussion between Unidata & NCEP, we wanted to field the question to the list if you would find value to adding WBGT to the feed.  Here is the relevant SCN: https://www.weather.gov/media/notification/pdf2/scn22-43_wet_bulb_globe_temp_t20_aaa.pdf

My personal opinion is we should add it, especially since other NDFD products are on the CONDUIT feed already.  I've also been given the impression that WBGT is becoming a popular product.  But I haven't used it yet myself.  How do you feel?

Moving forward I'll try to reach out here and other Unidata lists to field topics like this (e.g. additions/requests) prior to Users Committee meetings.  Our next one will likely be early November.

Thank you for your time and consideration,
-Mike
