SGP/ARSCL/C1 - Ceilometer not used during processing
DataStreams:sgparscl1clothC1.c1, sgparsclbnd1clothC1.c1, sgparsclcbh1clothC1.c1
Description:
The ceilometer was not used during processing due to a ceilometer data format change that 
ARSCL did not handle properly.  As a result, cloud boundaries in the lowest several 
kilometers may be less accurate than usual, as they are based solely on the micropulse lidar 
and millimeter cloud radar.
