Hi Laura,

How about this:

  tropical_storm_symbol = NhlNewMarker(wks, "m", 35, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 0.7,
0.0)
  hurricane_symbol = NhlNewMarker(wks, "p", 37, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0,
0.8, 0.0)

This returns an index that you can then use in the workstation of the
plot you are creating. Note that the wks graphical object must be
created first.
