Hithank you. now file name is different but same data is outputed in all files? I wonder what could be the reason for this?

I had an error. This line:
  asciiwrite (fName , data)

Need to be just before the first "end do":
    asciiwrite (fName , data)  end do                      ; end of "ip" loopend do                        ; end of time loop
end

Dear Marythank you very much for yoru response. i run the revised script from you but it is again giving output as a single ascii ouput as 18T1.... how could i get 19 individual stations files like 1T2oben_1kmtemp_rainnonc_rainc_raintot_wspd_wdir_snow_snowh.txt", 2T2oben_1kmtemp_rainnonc_rainc_raintot_wspd_wdir_snow_snowh.txt etc.regardsram


Please respond back to ncl-talk if you have follow-up questions. 
You have two sets of double do loops, where the first set of loops reads in the data, and the second loop tries to write it.
The problem is that all the data you're reading in the first set of loops gets reset every time, so by the time you get to your second set of do loops, you don't have any of the original data left to write.
You want to use just one set of do loops, so that you read in your data, and then immediately write it to a file before you then read the next set of data.
I moved all your 'wrf_user_getvar' calls to the outside do loop, because they only change for every value of "it" and not for every value of "ip".  It's time-consuming to have code in a loop that you don't need, so it's important to keep your "do" loops as clutter free as possible.
This is UNTESTED:

Dear Marythank you very much. i am new to these things. the script is not giving errors but i am not getting what i am expecting. i want to get -individual ascii file outputs for each stations (19 ascii files for 19 stations containing time series for whole period). would you please kindly suggest me where i need to change to get it?

Regards
ram

It helps if you provide more information about what the problem is.  Are you getting an error of any kind? If so, please indicate which line the error occurs on.
I think the problem is here:
   do  ip = 0, 18    do it = 0,ntimes-1 ;ntimes-1    data (it)= (sprintf("%5.0f",it)    +" " \          +sprintf("%21.2f", temp(it)) +"  " \          +sprintf("%22.2f", rain_expp(it)) +"  " \          +sprintf("%23.2f", rain_conn(it)) +"  " \          +sprintf("%24.2f", rain_tot(it)) +"  " \          +sprintf("%17.2f", wspd(it)) +"  " \           +sprintf("%25.2f", wdir(it)) +"  " \           +sprintf("%18.2f", snoww_eq(it)) +"  " \          +sprintf("%19.2f", snowh_h(it)) +"  " )end do end do                     ; end of time loop
 asciiwrite (fName , data)
You have a double "do" loop, where "data" is getting created inside the inner do loop.  For each iteration of "ip", then, the previous strings assigned to "data" are getting clobbered.  In fact, I'm not even sure why you are looping across "ip=0,18", because the inside loop is doing the exact same thing every time.
Finally, you call "asciiwrite", but this is only going to contain "data" from the last iteration of "ip" (ip=18).--Mary
