[gradsusr] shifted pollutants

What is the format of the attached file file_grads? I don't know what
software to use to read it. Is it an image? Is it code?

Anyway, the most likely reason you're seeing a "shift" is because you have
mis-specified the PDEF, XDEF, or YDEF entries in your control file (I
presume you are using a control file rather than using sdfopen to read the
data in Grads). This is causing a projection error. You can use ncdump -h
and ncdump -v [VAR] to output the values of the projection parameters for
your LC projection (unique to your WRF domain) and use the grads user guide
section on writing control files to construct the correct PDEF, XDEF, and
YDEF entries.
