I assume this is an error on my part but I'm stumped. I have stripped 
the code down to this (using opendap so it will work for others though 
file is large). It works if I don't subset the area.  NCL is 6.4.

Error is

fatal:Dimension (0) of (clat) is not named and therefore doesn't have an 
associated coordinate variable
fatal:["Execute.c":8638]:Execute: Error occurred at or near line 11

begin

; path = "/Datasets/noaa.ersst.v5/sst.mnmean.nc"
  path = 
"https://www.esrl.noaa.gov/psd/thredds/dodsC/Datasets/noaa.ersst.v5/sst.mnmean.nc"
  rad = 4*atan(1.0)/180
  sstdatafile = addfile(path,"r")
  sstall = sstdatafile->sst     ; all of data
  lat=sstdatafile->lat
  clat   = cos(rad*lat)
  printVarSummary(clat)
  sstall at missing_value=sstall at _FillValue
  T1=wgt_areaave_Wrap(sstall(:,{25:45},{140:145}),clat({25:45}),1.0,0)

end

clat is printed as
