Hi Dave: I've found that PyNIO doesn't like the grib files at

ftp://ftpprd.ncep.noaa.gov/pub/data/nccf/com/gens/prod/gefs.20070220/00/ensstat

(the ones with the 'pqpf' in the name).

The contain probabilities of precip for multiple thresholds, but PyNIO
doesn't recognize the thresholds. wgrib gives me:

1:0:d=07022000:PROB:kpds5=191:kpds6=1:kpds7=0:TR=4:P1=0:P2=2:TimeU=12:sfc:0-24hr
 acc:prob(APCP>254000.000000):NAve=0
2:0:d=07022000:PROB:kpds5=191:kpds6=1:kpds7=0:TR=4:P1=0:P2=2:TimeU=12:sfc:0-24hr
 acc:prob(APCP>2540000.000000):NAve=0
3:0:d=07022000:PROB:kpds5=191:kpds6=1:kpds7=0:TR=4:P1=0:P2=2:TimeU=12:sfc:0-24hr
 acc:prob(APCP>6350000.000000):NAve=0
4:0:d=07022000:PROB:kpds5=191:kpds6=1:kpds7=0:TR=4:P1=0:P2=2:TimeU=12:sfc:0-24hr
 acc:prob(APCP>12700000.000000):NAve=0

but nio gives me

>>> f = nio.open_file('ensstat.t00z.pqpf_24hbc.grb')
>>> print f.variables
{'lon_2': <NioVariable object at 0x514ef0>, 'lat_2': <NioVariable object
at 0x514ec0>, 'PROB_2_SFC_acc24h': <NioVariable object at 0x514d70>,
'forecast_time0': <NioVariable object at 0x514f20>}
>>> print f.dimensions
{'forecast_time0': 31, 'lat_2': 73, 'lon_2': 144}

Note that there is only one variable, and no dimension corresponding the
precip threshold.
