[gradsusr] tcorr error: invalid grid coordinates

[Mira Losic]

Hi everyone,

I'm hoping someone can help me with the tcorr function. I am simply trying
to correlate two WRF time series of temperature (T2) at a particular grid
location and level from the beginning to end of my time series. (t=1 to
t=123). The commands and errors are copied below.

Also, I'd like to use tcorr to correlate my WRF output to my station data.
Can tcorr find the correlation between station and gridded data?

Many thanks,
Mira
