[ncl-install] trouble installing NCL under conda environment

[Orhan Eroglu]

Hi Vanessa,

We haven't released any NCL versions yet for the M1 platform in our Anaconda
channel <https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/ncl/files>, and there is not any
plan of the GeoCAT team for that for the near future. We welcome community
contributions to the NCL repository for this purpose though.

Regards,
