[ncl-talk] Scripts for 1000-500mb thickness

[Daniel Vecellio]

Oh, sorry. Yeah, it was a general question, so I didn't know how much data
to put in my email. It is the normal output data from a WRF run on model
levels. I imagined something like you had above, but was wondering how
places above 1000 mb might need to be handled.

Thanks,
Dan
