[R] Problems trying to make a time series using NetCDF file

[Jeff Newmiller]

You might have better luck on the R-sig-spatial mailing list. If you had provided a reproducible example ("reprex") then I might have tried to answer the question but I don't use these tools often enough to grasp the source of your problem based only on diagnostics. And even though they might have a better chance of seeing  the issue with only diagnostics, I am sure they would appreciate a reprex too.
