Subject: [ncl-talk] Availability of the speidx() function before 6.4 release?<br>
<br>
Hi Dennis, Mary et al.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Is it possible to provide the source code for the speidx() function for the SPEI that is due out with ncl 6.4? I saw that the nws heat index code has been provided on the NCL web manual pages? Can this also be done for speidx()?<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Cheers and Thanks Much<br>
