Hi Adam,
Yes, that is exactly what I was after. That solved the problem (but
still wondering why wmbarb did work with a non-Lambert map?)
Thanks a lot,
Antti

Hi Antti,
I ran the script you downloaded to our ftp site, and got it to work by
using wmbarbmap. (You do want to use wmbarbmap as opposed to wmbarb when
drawing wind barbs over a map.)
The key is, wmbarb's inputs are (wks,x,y,...) while wmbarbmap's inputs
are (wks,lat,lon,...)
Thus when I changed this:
wmbarb(wks, lon, lat, u, v)
to this:
wmbarbmap(wks, lat, lon, u, v)
I got the attached plot. Hopefully this is what you were after.. Adam
