What are you using now to look at the re-analysis data? If you already have something set up for looking at netCDF formatted files, then converting the GRIB to netCDF would seem the way to go. We have a decoder "gribtonc" which decodes GRIB into netCDF. It is available throught our Web page in the Decoders section: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/decoders/index.html Don Murray
