This new use case will duplicate the efforts of Todd Spindler's VLab-Redmine code, specifically its calculations for Florida Cable Transport using AOML Florida current as obs, RTOFS output as model forecasts.
It still needs to be determined if the graphical output currently produced and displayed at the site listed below need to be produced in this use case.
As a final step, these new data sources will be logged in the METplus Verification Datasets Guide.

This is part of the larger Marine layer Verification package integration, which is tracked in #800.
