I have searched the web and read the user group and found that there might be a problem with ftools when trying to define a projection for a dataset missing a .prj file (http://hub.qgis.org/issues/5257).
I have attached an example that I need help with. The charley_post.zip fileset has the wind speed data for Hurricane Charlie (see http://www.aoml.noaa.gov/hrd/Storm_pages/charley2004/wind.html for source). Notice there is no .prj file and I have searched the NOAA website for any metadata without luck. The states_reproject dataset is the US Census tiger file for state boundaries transformed to the North American Lambert Conformal Conic CRS (+proj=lcc +lat_1=20 +lat_2=60 +lat_0=40 +lon_0=-96 +x_0=0 +y_0=0 +ellps=GRS80 +datum=NAD83 +units=m +no_defs). I would like to define the wind data to the ALCC CRS, if it works the data should overlay southern Florida.
