I am passing several dates and times into this function and would like to work with the "returned" loc_y/m/d/h values, but no output is visibly seen when I run the main script. I want the "return" command to just return the values to me in the main script so I can work with them! Any help is appreciated.

Could you please be so nice and share the relevant parts of your main
script with us ?
