Ah, you have a NetCDF variable, which in many ways purposefully looks like
a NumPy array, but isn't.  Just keep in mind that a NetCDF variable is
merely a way to have the data available without actually reading it in
until you need it.  If you do:

ssh_data = ssh[:]

Then the NetCDF variable will read all the data in the file and return it
as a numpy array that can be manipulated as you wish.

I hope that helps!
