[ncl-talk] plot error: warning:ContourPlotInitialize: X coordinates out of data range: defaulting

[Ying Song]

Hello,

Thanks for reply! Sorry I attached a old script. Yes, I commented out those
three lines. The error message is the same. Attachments are the updated
script and the .out file just generated.

Also, to avoid the advancing frame, should I just remove the "frame(wks)"
line?

Thanks!
