Hi Mark,

they are... see part of my ctl fle below:


dset ^gfs.grib2
index ^gfs.grib2.idx
undef 9.999E+20
title gfs.grib2
* produced by g2ctl v0.0.8.8

* griddef=1:0:(537 x 209):grid_template=0:winds(N/S): lat-lon grid:(537 
x 209) units 1e-06 input WE:SN output WE:SN res 48 lat 24.000000 to 
76.000000 by 0.250000 lon 303.000000 to 77.000000 by 0.250000

What do you use to get the GRIBS, how do you process them, where do you 
use them (SW)?
