Observations: T(lev,time) and Q(lev,time), LAT(time), LON(time)

Is the target grid rectilinear?

If, say, the grid box is bounded by lat_low, lat_high, lon_low, lon_high

  itime = *ind*(LAT.ge.lat_low .and. LAT.lt.lat_high .and. \
                    LON.ge.lon_low .and. LON.lt.lon_high)

  T_super = *dim_avg_n_Wrap*(T(:,itime), 1)
  T_super at long_name = "Super Ob: " + T at long_name   ; cancatenate
  printVarSummary(T_super)

Same for Q

For grids the lat_low, lat_high, lon_low, lon_high would have to be indexed.
