Climate Forecast System (CFS) Pressure Post-Processing

def cfs_pressure_post_processing(path):

This function post-processes all GRIB2 Keys into a Plain Language Format for CFS Pressure Data.

Required Arguments:

1) path (String) - The path to the files.

Optional Arguments: None

Returns

An xarray.array of CFS Pressure Data with variable keys decoded into plain-language.
