[ncl-talk] Convective Temp Calculation

Dennis, thanks! I'm 99% there.. WRAPIT worked fine and I was able to get
the soundings to run and generate.. I had to work a little bit with my
variables to line up with my sounding file.. I think I have some bad math
somewhere as all my convective temps are pretty off? Or 0.. I'm unsure
which variable r is referencing here, when looking through the code. I
assume mixing ratio? I've converted it to kg/kg also, but no avail.

Last step, I hope!
