I think you simply need to change the "do" loop that writes out the ASCII file so that it writes the whole arrays, rather than one time step at a time.

For example, instead of:

    line = new(ntimes+1,string)

    line(0) = " Time Temperature Pressure Relative_Humidity U V Wind_speed"

    do it = 0,ntimes-1

      line(it+1) = sprintf("%5.0f",it) +" " \
          +sprintf("%18.2f", T_C(it)) +" " \
          +sprintf("%12.2f", P(it)) +" " \
          +sprintf("%12.2f", RH(it)) +" " \
          +sprintf("%12.2f", ua) +" " \
          +sprintf("%12.2f", va) +" " \
                 +sprintf("%12.2f", wind_speed(it))

    end do

You can do this (UNTESTED):

    filename = "out_2_1.txt"
    format = "%5.0f %18.2f %12.2f %12.2f %12.2f %12.2f %12.2f"
    write_table(filename,"w",header,"%s")
    write_table(filename,"w",[/it, t_C, P, RH, ua, va, wind_speed/],format)
