4 years ago The format that the archived sounding file needs to be in is specified here
https://github.com/sharppy/SHARPpy#using-the-sharppy-sounding-picker
under "Loading in Sounding Data Files". At least that's the way it used to be. I haven't seen any changes announced.

4 years ago Hmm. Never mind, I guess it will load bufkit type archive files. I guess you'll need to create the file, and format it as closely as you can, to regular bufkit files with all the date, time, ID, elevation, etc information at the top of the file, but obviously I'm no expert. But wouldn't you need something like this at the top?

4 years ago Thanks for the reply. The help site (https://sharppy.github.io/SHARPpy/datasource_guide.html) states that it will load UW data, but I'm not sure what that means. The data is available for UW in the three formats, links below. The last one looks similar to what you posted but not quite the same. I'm not sure if I can save this to a text file and load it (doesn't work) or if I need to add some of the tags (%TITLE%, %RAW%, and %END%). If the tags are needed I'm not sure where they should go.

I couldn't find bufkit data going back to 2004 so I'm trying to open an archived sounding file from UW. I'm not sure how to do it. I select the date, selected Text:List from the type of plot menu, and clicked the station I want the data from. The site opens another window with text. I copied the text into a text file and tried to open it but I get a "SHARPpy is broke message."
The data in file looks like what I pasted below, except it's lined up correctly.
Am I doing this right?
Regards, Chris
