 Thanks for your reply!
 However, the command you suggested
 ncl_convert2nc fnl_090101_18_00_c.grb
 still does not work for me, at least.
 I still get the same error message as following,

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
 fatal:NetCDF: Name contains illegal characters
 fatal:FileAddVar: an error occurred while adding a variable to a
file, check to make sure data type is supported by the output format
 fatal:Execute: Error occurred at or near line 333 in file
/tmp/tmp12547.nc

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
 This happens to me on any NCEP-FNL 1by1 degree data.
 Although it looks like the naming of the variables in the GRIB file
may have some confliction with the key words either in NetCDF or NCL,
 I cannot figure out how to go through it.
 Could you please download one of them from
 http://dss.ucar.edu/datasets/ds083.2/
 by clicking "Data Access" and try?
 Thank you very much!
 Best Regards,
 Xiaoming

 NCL will look for fnl_090101_18_00_c.grb and if it does not
 find it, NCL will look for the fnl_090101_18_00_c file and
'remember'
 to treat it as a grib file.
