DODS allows one to give a application a url and have it directly download data. To read this data into GrADS use

sdfopen http://digilib.icpac.net/SOURCES/.ICPAC/.Forecasts/.CPT/.Rainfall/.Seasonal/.History/hindcast_date/S+exch/2+index/.final_season/3+index/.hindcast_length/4+index/.hindcast_date/5+index/.InputObs/6+index/.CrossValHind/1+index/%5BX/Y%5DREORDER/dods

If you have questions, comments, or problems please use the help@iri link. This page will evolve as we learn more about how GrADS handles data downloads, and your help pointing out problems is much appreciated.

^*On GrADS startup, the config line should read Config: ... DODS-enabled ..., otherwise DODS (a.k.a. OpenDAP) is not installed and giving GrADS a URL instead of a local file name will result in a file-not-found error. In that case, you can use sdfopen after you download the netcdf file.
