Hi guys,

I'm saving this dataset as a netcdf file:

<xray.Dataset> Dimensions: (lat: 41, lon: 41, month: 12) Coordinates: * lat (lat) float32 -45.5 -45.4 -45.3 -45.2 -45.1 -45.0 -44.9 -44.8 ... * lon (lon) float32 182.0 182.1 182.2 182.3 182.4 182.5 182.6 182.7 ... * month (month) int64 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 Data variables: wspd_mean (month, lat, lon) float64 9.068 9.082 9.097 9.111 9.129 9.149 ... wdir_mean (month, lat, lon) float64 112.3 112.4 112.2 112.3 112.5 112.6 ...

However I'm not sure how to preserve the order of the coordinates in the output netcdf:

``` netcdf test { dimensions: lat = 41 ; month = 12 ; lon = 41 ; variables: float lat(lat) ; double wdir_mean(month, lat, lon) ; double wspd_mean(month, lat, lon) ; float lon(lon) ; int64 month(month) ;

// global attributes: :date_created = "2015-07-18 16:20:02.603378" ; } ```

Is there a way to make sure coordinates / variables are written to netcdf at some specific order please? Thanks
