I would just use an RPM... you find the RPM, click the link and linux will install it for you.<div><br></div><div><a href="http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/gbvalor/">http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/gbvalor/</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>Find your operating system, then on the next screen you likely want to click the x86_64 directory... then scroll way to the bottom to find wgrib2. So for example, if your OS is CentOS you'd click:</div>
