Specifically, the call to addfiles() at line 54 returns a variable of type FileVariable. However, previously you had set the type of the variable "filename" as a string, at around line 19. NCL is strongly typed -- you don't have to declare the type of a variable in advance, but once fixed (in both data-type and array shape), it sticks, unless you do one of two things: i) use the delete statement, ex: delete(filename) in your case, or ii) use the reassignment operator ":=", ex, filename := addfile(....)</div><div><br></div><div>Mohammad, you seemingly had two questions, the second of which I never really understood (about looping over the lat/lon values). For the first one, regarding multiple directories, it looks like there's a missing "/" between the directory pathname and the wrf filenames. Also, I don't believe addfiles takes a a wildcard pathname, but rather an array of filenames that may be relative or absolute pathnames. Dennis's script shows how to do that, but NOTE, there may be missing a "/" between the parent directory and the "runXXX" directories.

<p>Hi Bary </p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I am in the same sort of problem. I told you before when I try to run the attached script, it is unable to find wrfout_d04 files in all folders </p>

<p>run 8 and</p>
<p>run9 </p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I tried to be as clear as possible in NCL help but I may not have explained properly. If you understand my problem please reply me. I see the following errors when I run the script.</p>
