But, with python and the pygrib2 module, grib2 is easy. With the
additional bonus of pyNGL python module and NCL, plots are easy with
grib/grib2. Convert grib2 to netcdf in a heartbeat.

You don't need NCL though to convert grib2 to netCDF. So, its a natural
module to add to your python collection.
