Re: regional mean precipitation

The error in the graphics not in the computation of the mean.

Did you look at the output from the following?

printVarSummary(precAvg)
printVarSummary(pr0Avg)
printVarSummary(pr1Avg)
printVarSummary(pr2Avg)

Please carefully read:
http://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Document/Functions/Contributed/wgt_areaave_Wrap.shtml

====

[1] These are *time series* ==> precAvg(time)

     *not* spatial grids that can be *contoured* ==> (lat,lon)

[2] You should be using (say)

      plot(0) = gsn_csm_xy(wks, time, precAvg, res1)

[3] I would suggest not using unweighted areal means

pr0Avg = wgt_areaave_Wrap(pr0(:,{lat1:lat2},{lon1:lon2}),1.0,1.0, 0)

but (say) cosine(latitude) weighting

clat0 = cos(0.01745329*pr0&lat)
pr0Avg = wgt_areaave_Wrap(pr0(:,{lat1:lat2},{lon1:lon2}),1.0,1.0, 0)
