[GEMPAK #ZGN-126493]: Fwd: Fwd: KY PM 7 Days data and map

Unfortunately floating points are not able to be plotted in SFMAP.  

Two solutions I have are 1) use SFPARM = ptot*100 to display precip to 
hundredths of inches but without the decimal point, or 2) use OAGRID and OABSFC 
to grid the surface precip obs to plot on top of contoured model forecast 
values.

I've done option 2 here on my end but can't seem to display point values (TYPE 
= P) for the PTOT grid and I'm not sure why.  If option 1 works for you then no 
bother, otherwise I'll have to look at this again tomorrow.

best,

Michael
