  • Date: Mon, 20 Sep 2021 15:46:08 -0600
Hello,

There are many different reasons this file might not be readable; it might be 
corrupted, or incomplete, or (for some reason) not actually a netCDF file.  
Would it be possible for you to make the file which doesn't work available, so 
that we might inspect it?

Thank you,

-Ward
