[ncl-talk] Attaching plots along the Y axis

Hi Seyni​,
I just ran your script here using a NCEP Reanalysis I file I had and it
worked fine. I had to set gsnDraw and gsnFrame = False for each of the two
resource lists to avoid 3 frames being drawn, but even without those
resources the script ran fine. I tested the script in NCL v6.3.0 and
v6.2.1.

If you are running an older version of NCL I recommend you upgrade to
6.3.0. I've attached the plot for reference.

If you have any further issues please respond to the ncl-talk email list.
Adam
