Hi Stefan,

        I am not clear how you did the layer average. There is a system 
function named layerAverage(grid, top, bottom), to call this function, you can 
select, Formula > Grids > Define a grid diagnostic, and select color-shaded 
plan view, and click create display, a window popup, enter layerAverage(grid, 
600, 900), and then another window popup, select the relative humidity. It 
should work. Otherwise, let me know.
