john,
grib data is one of ncl's supported formats. the means of reading in the
data is the same as netCDF
a = addfile("myfile.grb","r")
varb_in = a->varb_on_file
the only issue that might come up is that there is no standard for grib
which means there are many grib lookup tables out there. we have many
different grib lookup tables in ncl already. these should allow most if
not all of your data to be read in correctly. it would only be the
outlyers that would not work.
i suggest you choose an example from the web and plug your data in to see
what happens. If it turns out this data is sufficiently different, we will
need the grib table itself.
cheers,
sylvia
