McIDAS-V Support Forums

Thanks so much,

Thank you Barry! I am back from my travels and I put one of the images (McIDAS_MSG1_SEVI_....) on the ftp site. I also put a tiff file called CTTfinal.tiff there that shows one of the temperature readouts of a cross section.

Hello, In McIDAS V when I contour or make a histogram of the cloud top temperatures of the European SEVI MSG15 (IR 10.8 micron channel) McIDAS Area Format data the temperatures are not correct. For example, some of the temperatures are 370K! Any thoughts one what is going on here? Thanks very much.
