<div>Dear GrADS Users, </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I am beginner to wrf and GrADS, and want to display the output data of wrf using GrADS, I used the wrf2grads program to get the ctl and dat file which are needed by GrADS. When I tried to plot the data, there seems to be a problem, the figure does not coincide with the lat and lon lines (Fig 1). I thought it was because the case uses a lambert projection, while the default projection used by GrADS seems to be Mercator, so I tried to use "set mproj lambert" in GrADS, but only get a small figure (Fig 2) which also seems not properly. Which command should I use to get a right figure.</div>

<div>Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated. The CTL file and the figure plotted are below. I'm a new GrADS user, so if this is a newbie problem, I apologize in advance.</div>
