[gradsusr] Getting SREF Probability Variables To Plot In GrADS

[Jennifer Adams]

Hi, Aaron -- 
You don't need the alias syntax with grib data. The var1.1 syntax is just a dummy variable name that is designed to be unique to the record. You can use use "p1" instead of "var1.1=>p1". 

What is the output from gribmap -v?
