Claudia,<div> I use the following script for a specific station(lat/lon) for 27 levels and time t=1 to t=37.I have used three types of displays viz speed in knots, m/sec and skipping some values.</div><div>You may change these values to suit your requirement.Data file used by me is 05may06_nonocc.ctl</div>
<div>Hope it serves your purpose.</div><div>Anil</div><div><br></div><div><div>'reinit'</div><div>'open 05may06_nonocc.ctl'</div><div>'set lat 30.15'</div><div>'set lon 74.45'</div><div>'set gxout barb'</div>

<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I would like to plot vertical wind profiles that display both the wind speed and the wind direction at select points. In another program (i.e., Gempak) I was able to plot a line graph of wind speed in the vertical on the left and wind barbs at selected elevations denoting wind direction on the right in the same graph. In Grads, I am able to plot wind speed, but I have not found a way to display a vertical profile of wind direction using wind barbs or wind vectors, etc. I would appreciate any advice.<br>

Thanks,<br>
