NetCDF files typically have the extension ".nc" or sometimes ".cdf" if they
follow an old and now deprecated convention.

If what you have really is a netCDF data file, you can see what's in it with
the "ncdump" command line utility, or with a wide variety of other software
listed here:

If you want a text version of the data, see the answer to this FAQ:

   How do I convert netCDF data to ASCII or text?

If you have a Windows system, you can download and install pre-built
binaries, including the ncdump.exe program, here:
