20000927: Climate related products

Glenn,

The vector related chapters will be found under $GARPHOME/fdf/vector.
The vector/ruc211 directory has 1 chapter called General, and
in that are functions:
Qn         Qvec_geo   Qvec_ms-1  Qvec_n     Qvec_s     ThermWind

Those are the functions that should be available in the pulldown if you use 
that modelkey. If you have other functions to add, you can do that in your own 
chapter,

Don't know about #2 regarding Garp. There is a climo field in the mrf mos of 
course.

All NWX configurations are in the $NWX_TABLES directory.
The master.tbl file will have the locations and file extensions for the data 
files.
I added metar to pull up bulletins which have the raw observation within it.
You can pull up individualt TEXT and SPCI bulletins that are stored in surface 
files
by the dchrly decoder using sflist.
