[IDV #GBS-511894]: WRF from IMD not readable

Hi Remi-

I'm guessing the problem is that we do not have the GRIB table for the IMD 
definitions.  If you have the table, you could try following the instructions 
on adding new tables in the IDV User's Guide at:

http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/IDV/docs/userguide/data/GribTables.html

Alternatively, if you could upload the file to:

http://motherlode.ucar.edu/repository/alias/idvupload

I can take a look.  In either case, if you have a IMD specific grib table that 
you are using with wgrib, that would be helpful.
