Hi,
I am trying to create/populate a surface data file. I have used sfcfil
to create the empty .gem file, and I have an ascii text file with the
station data. However, when I run sfedit I get the following errors:
[SFEDIT -8] Parameter HOUR is not in the data set.
[SFEDIT -8] Parameter DRCT is not in the data set.
[SFEDIT -8] Parameter SKNT is not in the data set.
[SFEDIT -9] SFEDIT cannot continue with invalid parameters.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? I've attached the station table I used,
the data file, and the error messages.
Thanks!
Dave
