Robb,

If you need, I can send you some data files. They are in standard

GRIB (WMO, edition 1) format.

Wendy,

If you put one file (largest one) on a ftp server then I could get it. It
would help a bunch.

Robb...

We also asked help from FNMOC, Navy and as they say, we need a bunch of
stuffs (like grib library, locnet library...) and the configuration is
also kind of complicated. So if you could generate the CDL file which
could be used as parameter of gribtonc, it really saves us a lot of time.

Thank you very much!
