Convert ascii to a netCDF

Hi!
I need a help...
How to generate an archive ".nc" from an archive ascii?

The ascii file is prc30.grd (it contains 62483 rows)

  -4400 8300 293 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
  -4350 8300 293 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
  -4300 8300 167 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
  -3950 8300 350 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
  -3900 8300 467 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
  -3850 8300 627 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
  -3800 8300 553 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
     ...
     ...
  -6950 -5550 350 71 66 75 70 69 57 55 62 57 50 57 61
  -6900 -5550 417 65 60 66 61 61 50 49 56 50 44 53 57
  -6850 -5550 257 61 57 61 58 57 47 46 53 47 40 49 54
  -6800 -5550 110 58 55 58 55 54 45 45 50 45 38 47 52
  -6750 -5550 87 56 53 58 53 52 43 43 47 43 37 45 50
  -6700 -5550 57 55 52 58 51 50 42 42 45 42 36 44 49
  -6750 -5600 123 62 59 64 59 57 48 48 53 49 41 50 55

And their file read.txt is:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
prc30.grd (f6.2,f5.2,f4.0,12f4.0) : lon, lat, elev, monthly mean
precipitation

The file contain the same 62483 pixels in the same order (from NW in spirals
around the globe to SE), with 30' latitude and longitude resolution. The
coordinates are in degree-decimals and indicate the SW corner of each pixel.
Topography is from ETOPO5 and indicates modal elevation.

I wait a reply anxiously…
Thanks a lot!
