[ncl-talk] Struggle to convert WRF times to UTC for simple XY plot

[Nicholas Thomas Luchetti]

Hi all,

I am struggling to convert my x-axis time labels to UTC when plotting WRF
output...

I've tried following the time_labels_3.ncl example:
https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/Scripts/time_labels_3.ncl

but can't seem to get it to even recognize the time_axis_labels function.
It gives an error (screenshot attached) before even starting the script...

Additionally, my WRF simulations output every 5 minutes, so when I use the
wrf_times_c function for hours since the beginning of the simulation, the
times are listed as decimals (see attached screenshot)... Could this be an
issue considering the example script displays a perfect 60 minute output
from a WRF simulation?

I've also attached my script. Does anyone know of a quick fix for this? Or
do I need to figure out a better way to convert the times to a useable
format?

Thanks,

Nick Luchetti
