[ncl-talk] Error while plotting winds from WRF dataset

Mon Nov 13 21:06:03 MST 2017

Dear All,

I wish to plot winds at 850 hpa but facing error as below. Tried it several
ways like plotted separately by taking single file at a time, doing this it
works fine. while doing panel plot, third file shows some weird error as
mismatch array (If I handle third file separately, it does not show any
error). I have uploaded 3 datafiles via NCL ftp, these are WRF files
renamed as 13_aug_2014.nc, 14_aug_2014.nc <http://13_aug_2014.nc>, 15_aug_
2014.nc <http://13_aug_2014.nc> (concanated using ncrcat). Please have a
look at it and suggest me modification I need to carry out in the script.

I have attached script. In the script, all the three files e.g. a0,a1,a2 (I
have repeated same files again as a3,a4,a5) have same structure except
time.

fatal:Dimension size mismatch, dimension (0) of left hand side reference
does not have the same size as the right hand side reference after
subscripting.
