A BLOG ABOUT SOUTHWESTERN WEATHER, Welcome to the MadWeather Blog! We have two basic rules for this blog:
WEATHER FORECASTING & OBSERVING, AND OTHER RELATED TOPICS
(1) Debate and discussion should be civil.
(2) Because public discussion, regardless of the topic,
is not very effective if we don't know who is talking to whom,
MadWeather does not accept anonymous posts.

More on Bad Sounding Data
Jimmie C. wrote: I was a little loose with my "fix" comment. At least from an automated perspective, any QC of the data would flag that layer as being bad, and thus you could simply remove that data from the sounding. Not ideal, nor entirely a correct procedure. However, the character of the failures between the two soundings appeared was quite different. I would rather keep a marginally bad sounding (where a shallow layer fails) than one where the entire sounding appears to have suffered a failure.
