how to make maximum wind plot along with level showing maximum wind for each grid

Hi Phillip,

Nice to hear from you too!

I tried some calculations on a local dataset with fixed vs varying
z-levels... it appears that if GrADS is fixed to one level, then the
result is a 1D (in z) field or line or point, depending on how your
horizontal domain is set... and if you have z-levels set to vary, you
get the same results from the single level calculations at every
vertical level, so that GrADS is duplicating the calculations for every
vertical level...

Give it a try on your dataset...

Hope this helps,
Chuck
