writing grib2 to NetCDF

[Leonardo Diogo]

Dear friend,

You can try cdo (climate data operators) which convert .grib2 files to
.nc and .ctl too. You can get it in
http://www.mpimet.mpg.de/fileadmin/software/cdo/#Download. That
program is useful to make some statistics calculus too. You can get a
cdo reference card in
http://www.mpimet.mpg.de/fileadmin/software/cdo/cdo_refcard.pdf.

I hope so you have your asks solved.

Regards

Leonardo
