My experience is install NCL to /usr/local, so u can do

 cp ncl_ncarg-5.0.0.CYGWIN_i686.tar.gz /usr/local
 cd /usr/local
 tar -zxvf ncl_ncarg-5.0.0.CYGWIN_i686.tar.gz

 There is no PATH like /cygwin/home on cygwin :)~~ type "pwd" to see
where you are.

.cshrc should be created by user themselves. Under cygwin you can link
 tcsh.exe to csh

 cd /bin; ln -sf tcsh.exe ./csh

you can add PATH to your .bashrc file and restart cygwin

 hint: export PATH=SomeNewPath:$PATH

 Good luck!
