NCREAD reading GRIB2 files?

For my understanding these are GRIB2 files... any potential reasons they're not working? Maybe I misunderstand that NCREAD cannot read this format? Any help would be appreciated
url = 'ftp://ftp.ncep.noaa.gov/pub/data/nccf/com/gfs/prod/gfs.2015011412/gfs.t12z.pgrb2.0p25.f120'
data = ncread(url,'APCP');

I don't believe ncread can read files via FTP, only OPeNDAP. You'll have to save the file locally before you can read it.

Also, you'll need to convert the file to netcdf... unlike NCL, Matlab doesn't read in GRIB files natively.
