Erik,

One of the differences between wrf_map_overlay and wrf_map_overlays is
that the former is a procedure, and the latter is a function.
Make sure if you use the new wrf_map_overlays, you treat it as
a function, and assign it to a variable.

The error message may be indicating that it can't find
wrf_map_overlays. Are you loading your own WRFUserARW.ncl file? If
so, you may have an old version that doesn't have wrf_map_overlays in
it.

If you download 5.1.0 from the web and load the WRFUserARW.ncl
that comes with it, you will get the wrf_map_overlays function.

You can still use wrf_map_overlay. The message is just a warning that
it is no longer being supported.
