[gradsusr] Few basic questions on processing of TRMM data in GrADS

[Subash Yeggina]

Hi! Teddy,

Thanks for the quick response.

I actually have downloaded NetCDF files from NASA site: (
http://mirador.gsfc.nasa.gov/) for 5 years (both daily and 3 hrs). I tried
displaying for 1 day and it works fine.  How do 1 do it for 1 year. For
example : Displaying the average of 5 years precipitation of my region ?
