Re: ncl_convert2nc leap year problem

ncl_convert2nc does not check for leap years.
It converts all the grib records on the file to netCDF.

You can send the files to

ftp ftp.cgd.ucar.edu
anonymous
<use your email address for the password>
cd incoming
put ...grib...
quit

Send email to ncl-talk
after you have successfully completed the transfer.

Note that for security reasons, you cannot list the contents of this
directory, and neither can we. We need to know the *exact* names of the
files in order to retrieve them.
