> PyNgl and PyNio have some critical weaknesses as follows.
> 1. NCAR has not updated PyNgl and PyNio updated for a long time. They do not support full features of NCL.
> 2. PyNgl does not support x window plots. It only allows creating postscript files.
> 3. PyNio cannot delete and replace existing NetCDF files.
> I suggest replacing PyNio/PyNgl with Scienfitic.IO.NetCDF and mpl_toolkits.basemap.
