[ncl-talk] Fwd: Another dimensions problem

[Barry Lynn]

Hi:

Here are the working versions.

*For reference*, I have attached the program (feed_data.ncl) that I used to
read an ascii file of data values and overwrite my wrfinput variable
"l_obs" (not a standard variable, but one I added to the Registry).

I have also attached the program (thank you Alan) I used for mapping the
changed wrfinput file.
