After you've plotted the gray fill you clear the plot using 'c'...
The 'c' command is 'clear'... Take out that line 'c' and it should
work.<br>

was wondering if anyone knows how to plot a map with gray
fill, and then overlay fields over the gray map? When I run
my GrADS script, the gray map appears briefly and then
disappears completely and I am left with only the plotted
fields and no map. I've tried placing the "basemap" lines in
multiple places, but nothing seems to work. Are the order of
steps in my script incorrect?</div>
