Yes, that looks correct to me.

You can look at the $NCARG_ROOT/lib/ncarg/nclscripts/wrf/WRFUserARW.ncl
script in a UNIX editor, and search for "wrf_user_stagger" to see how it is
used in various places there:

         u    = wrf_user_unstagger(u_in,u_in at stagger)
         v    = wrf_user_unstagger(v_in,v_in at stagger)
