[ncl-talk] Error using plotgrids.exe

[Bill Ladwig]

Hi Sara,

In your script, can you print the values you are extracting for truelat1,
truelat2, stand_lon?  The "plotgrids" section of your code looks different
than what is provided in the WPS/util/plotgrids_new.ncl script that comes
with the WRF source code.  You should also double check the i_parent_start
and j_parent_start values to make sure those are ok.  This is most likely
some kind of projection issue, as you suspect.
