[ncl-talk] WRF and Surface Data Not Lining Up

[Zach Rieck]

I can try reuploading too and see if it goes through. That's correct that
my y has 2 values. That is to accommodate plotting the regression line,
stored in the y-values so that it is plotted. That's how I saw it was done
in the examples online, but if you think another approach would be better
for what I have I'm open to it.
