Hi Alison,
As far as I can tell there have been no objections to my proposal. Would it be possible to add it to the standard name table please?
Thanks,
Dan

Dear Dan,
Thanks for your standard name proposal - you have done all that is necessary for it to be 'picked up'. I am the person responsible for updating the standard name table (the latest version can be viewed on the CF website at
http://cfconventions.org/Data/cf-standard-names/27/build/cf-standard-name-table.html). I also maintain a list of proposals that are in the pipeline, so to speak, which is linked from the website 'Discussions' page (
http://cfconventions.org/discussion.html) or can be viewed directly at
http://cfeditor.ceda.ac.uk/proposals/1?status=active&namefilter=&proposerfilter=&descfilter=&filter+and+display=filter. Your proposal has been added to this list. (N.B. I am also in the process of adding other recent proposals to bring the list up to date as it hasn't been done for a while).
I agree with Jonathan that your proposal for number_of_days_with_surface_temperature_below_threshold is fine and since it is so similar to an existing name I think that unless anyone raises any objections within the next week it can be accepted for publication in the standard name table.
Best wishes,
Alison
