Hi,

As described in the netCDF FAQ:


  Is netCDF available for Windows 95 or Windows NT? 

  Yes, several users have contributed portions of the port, and we
  have provided Makefiles as well as Fortran support. If you wish to
  build from source on a Win32 platform, obtain
  ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/contrib/win32/maks.zip, unpack
  it, and read WIN32_INSTALL.

There is a README at
  
  ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/contrib/win32/README

with more information ...
