[gradsusr] wind vectors

[Taha Alhosary]

Hi,
If the components of wind are u & v
You can use the following commands and 6 is the distance between grid and you can change as you like

'set gxout vector'
'd skip(u,6,6);v'

or
'set gxout barb'
'd skip(u,6,6);v'

Regards,
alhosari

Hi Giacomo,

Try this bit of script and just adjust the value (2,2) to make it fit on your map projection. Hope this helps.
'set gxout vector'
'set ccolor 1'
'd skip(ugrd10m,2,2);vgrd10m'
'set cint 5'
'set clab masked'

Regards,
Stuart.
