All the data variables in the FMRC Best Time Series data I'm looking at
are shaped like "time*,z,y,x" and such as one would expect. However, all
the "coordinates" attributes still include time*_run. The time*_run
coordinate variables are still there as well. They just aren't
referenced in any of the arrays.

i decided to leave the run time coordinate in the coordinates attribute, as a
way of formally associating it with the data variable, eg:
float Precipitable_water(time=8, y=103, x=108);
:units = "kg m-2";
:long_name = "Precipitable water @ entire_atmosphere";
:missing_value = -9999.0f; // float
:grid_mapping = "Lambert_Conformal";
:coordinates = "time_run time y x ";
note that the runtime coordinate uses time as its dimension:
double time_run(time=8);
:long_name = "run times for coordinate = time";
:standard_name = "forecast_reference_time";
:units = "hours since 2006-09-25T06:00:00Z";
:missing_value = NaN; // double
:_CoordinateAxisType = "RunTime";
