java -Xmx512m -classpath $CP ucar.nc2.iosp.grib.Grib2Netcdf INPUT OUTPUT.NC

Hi Robb,

Thanks for doing this!!

Go to http://www.bpa.gov/ftp/ftpretrieve.shtml

The file is called gfs-grib.tar.gz

I included at 12Z GFS grib file, a copy of awips.tbl (you may or may not

need) and a copy of the gfs cdl file that awips uses (I was never able to g
et this one to work correctly).

Thanks again,
