Re: Skew-T plot - Some more questions

Thanks Dennis,
I hope other are many people working with this code could help and advise
me on this. Meanwhile i have some more questions on skew-T

1. When I try to set @linePatternCape and @colCape options other than
default color and line pattern, the skewT code simply does not accept
changes. It just plots cape on the same default color and line pattern.
Just wondering how can i change these two options?
2. The thermodynamic info is plotted under @ThermoInfo option and includes
cape, pwat, show, plcl, and tlcl. This info is plotted on top of the plot.
In my script I am comparing two soundings (model with observations) I want
to see this info for both soundings. However, the text is overlapped
because the plotting location is same. Is there some way/option that i can
use to print this info from both sounding on the same plot but at my
desired locations?
3. What does @parcel option really does?
4. @WspdWdir = False Š. Does this means that we should put it 'False'
if we are passing 'u' and 'v' to skewT_PlotData
5. What is the difference between @HspdHdir and @WspdWdir options.

I greatly appreciate any help and suggestion on the above issues.

Cheers,
b:)
