[IDV #VRY-580628]: Question re vertical velocity

Hi Dave,
    In the vertical cross section display, the vertical motion has already been 
exaggerated (not sure how much). If you want to do it yourself, you need to add 
a simple formula like w*10, and then using the Formula > Grids > Make flow 
vectors from u,v, and w. Make sure the unit in these variables are the same.
