Hi Ufuk,
If I understand your issue correctly, your sign1 array contains integers
indicating at which lead/lag the maximum correlation occurs at each grid
point, and you want to know how to plot that information on the map?

This type of plotting is referred to as categorical plotting, and there
are a few different examples of how to do it here:

If that is not what you are after please respond back to ncl-talk and
let everyone know.
