Yes, that was the file. I just wanted to confirm that there's no dcgrib2 PIPE command for the nam212. Your LDM is only filing away the raw grib2 files to a directory, not executing the decoder dcgrib2. You'll need to talk to the person who set up the LDM about where the nam212 GEMPAK (*.gem) grid files are coming from. These files should contain a surface elevation grid for each forecast time, but the .gem files you're using only have surface elevation for the analysis time, and that's why the surface cross-section isn't showing up for you. -Michael > Mike- > Sorry for the week delay; it's been busy around here.
