Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.
I've had some success in decoding and displaying ASCAT SWATHs that the Ocean Prediction Centre has recently made available on their website ( http://www.opc.ncep.noaa.gov/gridded_wind_vectors.php). Displaying the Lightning Strike Density is an exercise in frustration! One problem is wind barbs. I've tried adding entries in the Localization section: d2dArrowStyleRules, d2dContourStyleRules and gridImagerySyleRules have no effect in changing the windbarbs from m/s to knots. Of course everything else plots in knots correctly. So, I was wondering if anyone knew how to change wind barbs from m/s to knots. Brian Bernard
