wrf_to_grads background map

[Brian Jewett]

Jeffrey,

Are you using the latest releases of WRF and of RIP?  There was a problem
earlier with the location of the background map, and as I recall the problem
affected the nest but not the coarse grid ... and this problem has been fixed
in newer releases.
