Greetings!

I just wanted to jump in here with a couple quick thoughts:

1. pygrib is available on windows from conda-forge (Thanks to yours truly--yes, 
I'll toot my own horn here. <laughs>)

  https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/pygrib/files

2. If your windows machines have access to your local AWIPS/EDEX servers, you 
could use our python-awips package (or the Data Access Framework) to directly 
access that information--assuming that the grids you want are indeed sitting on 
said EDEX servers

  https://unidata.github.io/python-awips/

Hope that helps,

Ryan
