Update History
  • 2011 Jan.3 Ver 1.0.0.1 Prompt messege modified.

Introduction
  • This script requires track data and model outputs (sea level pressure, surface wind speed).

    (It will show the SLP at the center, then shows the maximum wind speed within the searching range.)

  • Provides visual aid: place a make on the center, plot the wind speed contour.

  • Custom searching range.

Usage
Please define the following variables first:
  • 10 Meter wind speed data (Variable: U10, V10, default is u10, v10)
  • Sea level pressure data (Variable: SLP, default is pslv)
  • Prefix of you model outputs. (Variable: FileName, default is MMOUT_DOMAIN1_ )
  • The serial number of your model outputs BEGINS at... (Variable: FileNum, default is 0)
  • The serial number of your model outputs ENDS at... (Variable: MaxFileNum, default is14)
  • Searching range for finding maximum wind speed. (Variable: Range, default is ±1 degrees)
  • Divide the searching range in N times. (Variable: TotalSteps, default is 4)

Put this script along with you model outputs, then you can run this script directly.  The following options will be asked:
  • What  results do you want? (1.Sea Level Pressure 2.Surface Maximum Wind Speed 3.Both)
  • Do you need Visual Aid?
It'll place a TC symbol at the center and place a X at the wind speed maximum after plotting the wind field.
