Re: Dimension mismatch on latitude variable ERA data extraction

spell_tot_unique_mn(nr,:,:) = dim_sum_n(cold_mn1({spell(nr)},:,:),0)

NCL temporarily 'sees'

   spell_tot_unique_mn(nr,:,:) as 2-dimensional
   cold_mn1({spell(nr)},:,:) as 2-dimensional

But after dim_sum_n operates on a 2D array, it will be one-dimensional.

SO ...

    (:,:) = (:) results in exactly the error message
