[ncl-talk] segmentation default when reading variables

Hi Dennis,

This is not a wrfout_nc file, sorry, it was just the name used in the
script to call "file_in". What confuses me it's that when I open the file
with addfile with the option "r" I can get the variables (lat, lon or
whatever). The problem is when I want to overwrite some the values in
there, because I open it as addfile with the option "w". Then when I try to
read any variable the segmentation defaul happens. Any idea ?

Many thanks again,
Noelia
