NUCAPS – PopUp SkewT – Needs Improvement

One way to increase NUCAPS sounding data usage is to improve the ability to display “mouse over” soundings using the PoP-Up SkewT.  See the example below – I was able to mouse over the various points and display the NUCAPS soundings.

However, the PoP Up SkewT display is small, crude, and cannot be enlarged.  If a version of NSharp could be integrated into the PoP Up SkewT (e.g. larger SkewT with thermodynamic variables below) – then forecasters might use it more often.  The current PoP Up SkewT is probably 10 yrs old – and needs improvement.
