This is one ugly netCDF file. The time is given as an attribute to the
variable (without units of course) and the projection information is
coded as attributes with each variable. It would take a custom
GFEConvention handler to read these into the IDV.
I urge all data providers to use a standard convention (preferrably CF)
rather than homegrown netCDF formats.

Description of problem: GFE can output a netcdf and I'm trying to import
it into the IDV, but it appears GFE is not defining the
time properly, so the grids are not being imported. Only the Topo data
is appearing in the Fields.
I think I can post process the GFE netcdf file and get the proper time
specs in there, but wondered
if perhaps someone had already worked on this or maybe there is another
easier way.
I attached a sample netcdf from gfe that has MaxT data.
thanks

Sorry, I didn't attached the sample file in my last email.
