[Wrf-users] wrf stops running with a fatal error and no solution is available

[Abram Musinguzi]

Hi Dr. Panda,
Seems like wrf.exe starts and blows  up after some time. What time step are
you using in namelist.input? Did you try a smaller time step say 60
seconds? Also try to use 8 or 16 processors.

Best wishes.

Abram
