Hi Bo

Can you post your /home/campus03/bzhang3/Grads/fnl_20100508_06_00 on a website to download?

John

Hi John,

I just started using Grads. I used g2ctl and gribmap to generate the ctl and index file, which are all attached. The weird thing to me is, I tried out several fnl and gfs data files, I have this bump at 30mb for every of those.

Hi Bo

Attached is tmp at 30mb displayed in GrADS for the date time you use.  There is no 300.

What is your GrADS control file?

Hi great grads users,

I was trying to plot temperature profile with Grads and just found different results from Grads and wgrib2. I am sure that I am reading the same data file. I got the attached profile plot from Grads and the following result from wgrib2 at the same position. One thing should be noticed is that Gtads and wgrib2 number the grid box in different ways. The (0, 0) grid box in Grads (-180:179, -90,90) should be (181,91) in a (0:360, 0,181) system. The bump at 30 mb in the figure exists for any lon-lat position I try, which is wired to me. The other values are also slightly various.

$ ./wgrib2 ***/Grads/fnl_20100508_06_00 -s -ij 181 91 | grep :TMP
