[gradsusr] 500 hpa & Jetstream

[Stephen McMillan]

Stuart,
It would help if you shared the portion of your script that you used to
attempt doing the 500mb height charts. What is the snag?  What GrADS error
are you getting?  What are you trying to get your code to do?

 Whether you need to define them depends on how you're using them.
Following is a simple sample, assuming I've opened the gfs 0p25:

'set lev 500'
'set clevs 5160 5280 5400 5520 5640'
'set ccols 9 4 11 3 7'
'd hgtprs(t=5)'

You can also define it first...
'define hgt500=hgtprs(t=5)'
'd hgt500'
