Re: rgrid2rcm: only missing values returned.

It is my speculation, that the WRF longitudes are negative
while the CPC are positive.

pr = short2flt(precip(547,:,:)) ;2d for simplicity
pr = pr*25.4 ;get to mm
pr_at_units = "mm"

pr = lonFlip( pr )
printVarSummary( pr ) ; note lon coordinates

xgrd = rgrid2rcm(pr&lat, pr&lon, pr, xlat,xlon,0)
