Hi Rick and Daniele,

Thanks for your responses. I use NCL 5 so it could be something else. But what Daniele suggested is something I can really use for the purpose. Thanks much!

Hi,

I use lonPivot(data, 180)

http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Contributed/lonPivot.shtml

to arrange data so that the resulting Hovmoller diagram is centered on the
Greenwich meridian
