[Met_help] grid_stat netcdf files

[John Halley Gotway]

Luke,

Could you also please send along the config file you were using
(AFTAC_config_GS) and whatever you used to define the AFTAC masking
region?  I assume that AFTAC is a polyline.

I'm confused as to your question on the order of the arrays in the NetCDF
file.  When I do an ncdump of the NetCDF file you provided and grep out
the variable definitions, I see what's listed below.  The arrays appear to
be ordered as lat, lon as described in the user's guide.  However, in
METv1.0 I do believe they were ordered as lon, lat.

I'll try running Grid-Stat on the files and dump out the valid data values
on the input and output files to try to replicate what you're seeing.

John
