The "-q" option of the gribtonc GRIB-to-netCDF decoder supports WAFS
grid thickening:

     -q qspecs
          Specification for how to expand so-called quasi-regular
          or thinned grids into rectangular grids.  This argument
          is a comma-delimited text  string  that  specifies  the
          method  of interpolation used (currently lin for linear
          or cub for cubic), and the latitude and  longitude  in-
          crements  in  degrees  for  the  resulting  grid  (e.g.
          dlat=2.5,dlon=5.0).

and gribtonc it's available from the "Latest Decoders Package
(decoders.tar.Z)" at:
