[GEMPAK #MRJ-780269]: SPC Convective Outlooks



Hello Allan,

If you FILE the product from the HDS feed (rather than PIPE it to dcredbook), 
you can use GPMAP to plot it using the AWPSFL parameter:

An example, the latest day 1 outlook, filename day1_052002.wmo, using GPMAP


MAP      = 1
 MSCALE   = 0
 GAREA    = US
 PROJ     = STR/90;-100;0
 SATFIL   =  
 RADFIL   =  
 IMCBAR   =  
 LATLON   =  
 PANEL    = 0
 TITLE    = 1
 TEXT     = 1
 CLEAR    = YES
 DEVICE   = gif|convol.gif|1024;768
 LUTFIL   =  
 STNPLT   =  
 VGFILE   =  
 AFOSFL   =  
 AWPSFL   = day1_052002.wmo
 LINE     = 3//3

output gif is here:

Notice that we are unable to plot low and slight risk boundaries differently 
with this method.  This is a limitation of the file we are using.
