The issue is that multiple lines have identical forecast hours on each line so that it is an issue with my code that I was reading the same lat/lons and treating them the same as if they were independent forecast hours. Attached is a text file of the track file and my ncl script. Is there a way to use get_unique_values to get the indices from the unique values so that I am only saving those values and not duplicating?<div><br></div><div>Thanks,<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br clear="all"><div><br></div>-- <br><div class="m_-3786641249009813892gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div>Andrew Kren, PhD<br>
