The ATCF data source is expecting a directory not a file. The directory
structure should mimic the ftp directory structure. It looks for a
<dir>/storm.table file and then will read in the data files as:
<dir>/<year>/a<basin number><storm number><year>.dat.gz
We can look at modifying this class to support reading a .dat file directly.
