[Vk5-wx-sonde] Warning - sondehub predictions broken

[Steve]

For me getting offlind data is not fairing much better !

grrr for the first time in ages I managed to download some wind data with  
my pi-zero mini tracker wyth this command

model_download = python get_wind_data.py --lat=-34 --lon=139 --latdelta=3  
--londelta=3 -f 24 -m 0p25_1hr -o gfs

it took ages but I ended up with
pi at zero2:~/chasemapper/gfs $ ls

using

if i change it back to
  model_download = python get_wind_data.py --lat=-34 --lon=139 --latdelta=3  
--londelta=3 -f 24 -m 0p50 -o gfs
I get
