HWRF interest:

Ming Li, Serena Lee:
Priority 1:
- U10
- V10
- SST/SKT
- Land/sea mask (LANDMASK)
Priority 2:
- 2m temperature
- 2m relative humidity, or dew point, or water vapor mixing ratio
- Mean sea level pressure, or surface pressure
- Surface upwelling and downwelling long wave
- Surface upwelling and downwelling short wave
- Latent and sensible fluxes
Priority 3:
- Precipitation
Priorities 1 are essential and we would like Priorities 2 if available. We will take Priority 3 if you have it but if not it is not essential. If you have any questions please let me know.

John Wilkin:
-10 variables (to drive ROMS COARE4 bulk fluxes)
Qair: RH2m*
Pair: SLP*
Tair: T2
Uwind: U10r*
Vwind: V10r*
rain rate: RAINNC(i) - RAINNC(i-1) (RAINNC(0) for hr 0 rain rate)
LWrad_down: LWDNB (or GLW)
LWrad_net: LWDNB-LWUPB (or GLW-LWUPB) 
SWrad_net: GSW (or SWDWNB-SWUPB or SWDOWN-SWUPB)
-HWRF heat and momentum fluxes (to drive HWRF bulk formulae)
