I don't totally understand the scipy constraints on incremental writes but could that be playing a factor here?

I'm pretty sure SciPy supports incremental reads but not incremental writes. In general the entire netCDF file needs to get written at once. Certainly it's not possible to update only part of an array -- scipy needs it in memory as a NumPy array to copy its raw data to the netCDF file.
