<p class="MsoNormal">One WRF weather user asked: Can we use WRF to describe the weather in the Caribbean region?<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Latitude of 10-20 degree is good enough for Lambert Conformal Conic Projection?<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I think that Mercator projection may be a better projection for the near equator.

<p class="MsoNormal">If so, does WRF supports Mercator Projection?<u></u><u></u></p>
