As for the rest of the two suggestions: [ https://github.com/pmarshwx/SHARPpy/tree/gui https://github.com/PyAOS/aoslib] there doesn't seem be routines included for CAPE and CIN calculations.
I am working on idealized orographic precipitation simulations in WRF that will hopefully be presented in the Mountain Meteorology conference in August. Perhaps I am extra cautious, but I need a good control especially on CAPE calculation (independent of data-points, being able to specify where to lift the parcel and specify mixed layer depth etc.). This could be a good subject to discuss on the coming SciPy conference. The abstract deadline is tomorrow. I might join if I can get some funding to attend the conference. Is there any symposium planned for atmospheric science people? Thanks again.
