      Please forgive me if I am misinterpreting things as I only recently learned how to read a skew-t but I noticed something strange.

      The skew-t plot for my area (Denver, Colorado, elevation is about 1600m ) starts at 1000 millibars or sea level when using the NAM or HRRR models. However when I switch to the ECMWF model, it starts at 800 millibars which is closer to what I would expect.

      Here is the NAM skew-t in windy:

      For reference, this is the NAM skew-t from the NOAA web page:

          Hey, I just wanted to say I noticed that NAM and HRRR seem to be starting at the correct ground pressure now. Thanks for fixing this!
