Custom Weather Map Plot For 3Z August 9, 2013

This weather map was plotted as of 3Z August 9, 2013 (~11:00 P.M. EST) with no real dominant flow pattern except a stationary front draped across the continental United States. (seen in the attached link: http://www.hpc.ncep.noaa.gov/sfc/bwsfc03.gif) My goal was to closely reproduce that surface image from the Weather Prediction Center. Plotting isobars (constant pressure lines) and isotherms (constant temperature lines) is no easy task.
