Lambert Conformal Projection for WRF data

Hi

I had plotted the WRF humidity variable for a particular level.
However the figure is not what I wanted. (see attached figure)
1. There are 2 sets of latitude and longitude labeled. I only wanted 1
set , specifically the bottom and right set labels.
2. The figure is 90 degree to my title. I wanted the plot to be rotated
90 degree counter clockwise.

Could someone point out what I had did incorrectly?

Thanks
Agnes

The following is my code segment for plotting.
=================================================
 wks = gsn_open_wks("x11" ,"test") ; open a ps file
   res = True ; plot mods desired
; gsn_define_colormap(wks,"WhBlGrYeRe") ; select color map
    gsn_define_colormap(wks,"gui_default") ; select color map
    gsn_reverse_colormap(wks)
   res@gsnSpreadColors = True
   res@mpLandFillColor = -1 ; set land to be transperant
   res@mpOutlineOn = True
   res@mpOutlineBoundarySets = "AllBoundaries"
   res@mpLimitMode = "LatLon"
   res@mpProjection = "LambertConformal"
   res@mpEllipticalBoundary = False ; If you want elliptical
   res@cnFillOn = True
   res@cnLinesOn = False
   res@lbBoxLinesOn = True
   res@mpCenterLonF = -100
   res@mpMinLatF = 17 ; range to zoom in on
   res@mpMaxLatF = 40
   res@mpMinLonF = -125
   res@mpMaxLonF = -78
   res@tmXBLabelFontHeightF = 0.01 ; resize tick labels
   res@tmYLLabelFontHeightF = 0.01
   res@pmTickMarkDisplayMode = "Always"
   res@tiMainString = "Humidity Analysis Increments at approximately 300mb"
   res@lbLabelAutoStride = True
   res@cnLevelSelectionMode = "ManualLevels" ; set manual contour levels
; res@cnLevelSelectionMode = "AutomaticLevels" ; set manual
contour levels
   res@cnMinLevelValF = -2 ; set min contour level
   res@cnMaxLevelValF = 1 ; set max contour level
   res@cnLevelSpacingF = 0.1 ; set
   plot=gsn_csm_contour_map(wks,T_increment(34,:,:) ,res)
