ACARS NetCDF changes



To users of ACARS NetCDF files-

A new data field, "maximum derived equivalent vertical gust" will soon be added 
to ACARS NetCDF files being produced by the FSL Central Facility.  Consequently 
it is planned that the following paragraph be added to  our 
/public/data/acars/raw/RawAcars.cdl file immediately following the current 
entry 
for vertAccel:

        float vertGust(recNum);
                vertGust:long_name = "maximum derived equivalent vertical gust";
                vertGust:units = "meters/sec";
                vertGust:valid_range = -99.9, 99.9;
                vertGust:_FillValue = 99999.f;

        
If this will cause problems for you, or if you have comments, corrections, or 
suggestions, please contact Joe Carlson at one of the locations below before 
the 
close of business on Wednesday October 18th.  This change should go into 
integration on Thursday 10/19.
