[ncl-talk] problem with background on moving domain

[Mary Haley]

Yu,

I'm looking into this and am writing a version of your script that follows
the domain of your lat/lon data.

The basic issue is that each WRF output file has global attributes that
define the map area of interest. This is a fixed area, that I assume is big
enough to enclose the full boundary of your moving nest.

When you use wrf_xxxx plotting routines, they set the map projections based
on the WRF global attributes on the file, and not based on the individual
lat/lon domain.

Are you saying that you want the map to be redrawn such that the center of
your storm is roughly in the center of the map? If so, then you probably
don't want to use the wrf_xxxx routines for plotting.

I'm creating a version of your code that uses gsn_csm_xxxx to do the
plotting and will report back when it's done.
