Adam,<br>All you need to do is to manually create your color table using 'set clevs _ _ _ _' and 'set ccols _ _ _ _ _ ...' to set up your color table before you plot TMPsfc. If you're using the same color bar script that I use to plot the color bar, it should know which colors are in your color table and plot the color bar based on that. It sounds to me like you are getting different color bars because when you plot TMPsfc for the different seasons, Grads automatically applies the rainbow of colors to the range of values you are plotting, which change based on season. See <a href="http://www.iges.org/grads/gadoc/colorcontrol.html">http://www.iges.org/grads/gadoc/colorcontrol.html</a> for more information.<br>
