[gradsusr] missing WRF output at various pressure levels

[Jeff Duda]

Jonathan,
With the dimensions of your data set, I would not be surprised if the file
bb_p.dat got too big for ARWpost to continue processing.  I had problems
like that with WRF output in the past if I tried to get ARWpost to write
all time levels into one file.  However, it would give me an error message
when I ran it.  Did you see such an error message?  Either way I think the
problem is in your data file rather than in your control file or in Grads.
Check the size of your file and compare it to the value of
332*165*37*1105*8*4 = 71669769600, which is what the size of your .dat file
should be if all the arrays in it are single precision floating point type.
