[gradsusr] How to plot vertical wind speed with temperature from observational data

create your data file: if you need just a point (the station) your best
choice is to create a "gridded" dataset whith NLON=1 NLAT=1 NLEVS=...
NTIME=... for variables T, U, V (see documentation for gridded dataset)

You cannot use ascii files, binary dataset *only* (wrf simulations are
OK)

once you have the dataset, grads commands are easy:
'set t 1 last'
'set z 1 ...'
'd mag(u,v)'
'd t'

bye bye
