In the real-time weather forecast page for Sri Lanka, I plot WRF model output using GMT (Generic Mapping Tools) rather than standard plotters provided by the model developers. Following is the method to do it.

Dependencies

Need the following programs installed
  1. NetCDF [1]]
  2. GMT version >= 4.0 [2]
  3. gifsicle program for making GIF animations. [3]
  4. Portland group FORTRAN compiler (for Linux) or any other suitable FORTRAN

compiler.
