Hi Ibrahim,

You can plot both time series (meteogram) and skew-t charts using GEMPAK grid 
files.

the program GDTSER can plot a time series of a scalar at a single level:

and the program GDPROF can plot profiles of scalar or vector grids:

Have a read through the two manual pages linked above to familiarize yourself 
with the programs and try them out with your WRF output, and let me know if you 
have any follow up questions.
