 Dear Ehsan,

As far as I know, xarray with cfgrib is the best option with grib files
while working in Python (
https://xarray.pydata.org/en/stable/examples/ERA5-GRIB-example.html). Just
like the NCL collection of meteorological examples, xarray documentation
also gives many examples. Another option is Metpy (
https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/blogs/developer/en/entry/metpy-mondays-135-reading-grib),
which also depends on xarray and cfgrib and vice-versa. I hope it helps.
