I just want to send a gentle reminder about wind plots not working in AWIPS CAVE. I don't have an expectation for repairs to be done, but the unavailability of vector fields is a very significant omission and it removes probably 70% of the forecasting value of AWIPS. I just want to see if someone might take a look at this. Quick runthrough: Start AWIPS CAVE, go to Models, NAM 40km, show 850 mb Wind/Height. You will only get heights. The wind data does not plot. Also wind data does not plot on any product at all in any of the menus. Also related, the Surface > METAR Plot data doesn't plot but I know this has been acknowledged. I get "METAR Not Loaded", even though the panel shows "20.0400" which is current. Upper Air data (e.g. for 250 mb) has the same kind of problem. I have a public outreach on YouTube (MetLab) where I sometimes demonstrate AWIPS CAVE, and each time I can only show them the scalar fields like height. It would be great to be able to show more capabilities.
