Re: reading filename.h5 in NCL

Hi Paul,

Some email was sent to you offline to ask for the file, but we haven't heard back from you yet, so I thought I'd respond back to ncl-talk.

You need to verify that "OLR" is indeed a variable on dyour file before you can do a "-v" to convert it.

What happens if you just type:

ncl_filedump K1VHR_15NOV2013_1200_L02_OLR.h5 | grep -v olr

This will search for any variable name with any combination of "OLR" or "olr" in the name (or any upper/lowercase combination of that).
