Pull request overview

This PR updates the JCB-GDAS station-observation configuration to align with the updated IODA/UFO convention of using 2-meter variable names (e.g., airTemperatureAt2M) for surface station obs, so configs remain consistent with upstream operator expectations.

Changes:

  • Update the ADPSFC observation template to use airTemperatureAt2M in the obs space and QC filters.
  • Update the ADPSFC observation chronicle station-rejection key to airTemperatureAt2M.
