multiple forcing variables in a single ncf file

[markstro-usgs]

I'm trying to run something based on examples/02_prms_legacy_models.ipynb. I already have the variables prcp, tmax, and tmin in a single netcdf file that was written by Parker with his Bandit extraction code. I don't need to convert ascii CBH files into NCF files. I've been looking in the pywatershed code trying to figure out how to specify multiple variables that reside in one .nc but I can't figure it out. Is it possible to do this, or do I need to split them into three files with one variable in each?

@markstro-usgs It's not something that's currently supported. But it can be if Parker's netcdf file is stable. It's not much work.

The quickest path forward is to split them. I can help you do that if you like, should take me a bout 5 minutes to give you a script, so no big deal.

Good. Thanks James. Splitting up Parker's single netcdf files is the same idea I eventually came to. Before I spent much time on this, I wanted to make sure that I wasn't missing something.

I've got a notebook that I'm working up now. I just need to make sure the variables get named correctly and I've got the format of dates wrong -- minor stuff. When I get this working maybe it's a tool/utility that I could check in for others that are trying to run bandit extractions in pywatershed.
