Plotting U of Wyoming sounding data #5

Open

Description

@winash12

I have data from University of Wyoming soundings - [http://weather.uwyo.edu/upperair/sounding.html]. Can I use your package to plot this data and create a tephigram ?

    Yes, that was exactly the data I used when developing this code :) Although when you say "Plotting U" do you mean plotting velocity? I haven't added any wind profile plots yet unfortunately
