[IDV #SLF-112254]: problems in using formula

Bonjour Alain,

This problem is likely related to units.

We are going to need more information about the WRF data. In the
formula what units are you expecting for SRH and CAPE?

Also, please upload the WRF file here:

http://motherlode.ucar.edu/repository/alias/idvupload

Let us know when they are uploaded and the names of the data files.

Cordialement,

Unidata IDV Support
