I forgot to attach a sample bundle:
> > Trying to calculate potential temperature from a NAM 12km grib file. Did a search of support tickets but could not find anything. Would like to be able to do a cross-section of potential temperature.

> I just did this from the NAM 12km data we have on motherlode.

> When you load up that dataset, you should see a Derived field

> Note with this high resolution a dataset, the calculation is
