[ncl-talk] Reading grib2 file

[Dennis Shea]

Just append the .grb (or .grib2 or grb2) file extension on the command line

%> ncl_filedump aod.2014073103.grb     | less

===
NOTE: you do *not* have the change the filename explicitly.

NCL will look for the file 'aod.2014073103.grb' and when/if it does
not find a file with that name, it will look for the file 'aod.2014073103.
and 'remember' to treat is as a grib file.

Cheers
