Hmm.  Is this hapenning with "gradsdap" or with the regular "grads" (not
opendap enabled as in the "q config below")? OPeNDAP does create temporary
files for caching.  I was expecting these temp files to be created under
C:\GrADS20\tmp, not C:\.

Jennifer: Do you write any temp file as part of your Grib-2 caching?

  Thank you,
