      Hey Mike,
      <div class="">the format of the input data file (in this case an
        ASCI file) needed can vary a lot, but it must contain the
        variables required by the <font class="" face="Menlo">skewT_PlotData</font>
        function, i.e. air pressure, air temperature, air dew point
        temperature, height, wind speed and wind direction. It doesn’t
        matter how the file looks like, you just need to read the
        variable, do the necessary conversion and then provide them to
        the function. </div>
      <div class="">For this reason, you don’t need all the columns
        present in the file that you are mentioning…</div>
      <div class=""><br class="">
      </div>
      <div class="">I’m attaching an example script (really simple) and
        the datafile used to plot a skew t diagram, hope that helps.
        I’ve taken the data from the Wyoming university website, but as
        you can see in the script most of the columns are not even used.</div>
