    <p>Hi NCL talk,</p>
    <p>I always assumed that the NCL functions that began wrf_  were
      only usable with WRF.  However, while researching how to compute
      convective inhibition (CIN) from RAP fields I came to the
      conclusion that those functions are NOT necessarily WRF-specific,
      and that it might be possible for me to use wrf_cape3d to
      calculate CIN from the RAP model.</p>
    <p>Do other people agree with this? And is this true about a lot of
      the wrf_ functions in NCL?</p>
    <p>Thanks,</p>
    <p>Jim<br>
