[ncl-talk] yyyymmdd in month_to_annual_weighted?

[Maria Gehne - NOAA Affiliate]

I ran into a similar issue a while ago. My fix would be to copy the part of
contributed.ncl that computes month_to_annual_weighted and save it as a
separate ncl script with a slightly different name. I changed all the
references to yyyymmdd in that script to yyyymm and it works. You just need
to load the new script at the beginning of the ncl script that
uses month_to_annual_weighted_new (or whatever you decide to call it).
