from what I can remember, I don't remember problems with ncdf4 installs on windows, i'll ask some other people

pssguy commented 8 years ago

does not available for 3.3.1 mean it doesn't run on the latest R version? If so, that would be an explanation

sckott commented 8 years ago

No, because it runs fine on my machine.

Tried on a windows 8 VM, same setup wrt R, worked fine for me.

pssguy commented 8 years ago

Just tried again and worked fine. I guess I did not restatr R before installing first time. maybe because rnoaa was already attached? See sessionInfo above

glad you figured it out
