[Wrf-users] Query about WRF history file's last time step duration

Hi,

I am a bit confused about WRF history file's (output frequency is 3  
hours) last time steps duration. If I define my namelist.input file as  
follows:

===========================================================
  start_year                          = 2002, 2002, 2002,
  start_month                         = 01,   01,   01,
  start_day                           = 01,   01,   01,
  start_hour                          = 00,   00,   00,
  start_minute                        = 00,   00,   00,
  start_second                        = 00,   00,   00,
  end_year                            = 2002, 2002, 2002,
  end_month                           = 12,   12,   12,
  end_day                             = 31,   31,   31,
  end_hour                            = 21,   21,   21,
  end_minute                          = 00,   00,   00,
  end_second                          = 00,   00,   00,

==========================================================

My question is whether last time step will generate 2100, 2200, 2300  
Hours average statistics or will provide a value of 2100 hour only?


Thanks
