Dear Will <div>The Same Problem I got 6 months back. It depends on your time step(delta T) and input boundary files interval .I mean you input gfs files interval is 21600(6hours) then time step for domain(delta T) should be divisible by your delta T without remainder then it won't give error </div>
<div>like this . <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 7 September 2010 23:30, <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:wrf-users-request@ucar.edu">wrf-users-request@ucar.edu</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex;">

Hi,<br>
<br>
I'm running a nested (4 domain) simulation using fdda at 6 hourly<br>
intervals with WRF V3.2 (having downloaded the fixed reg_parse.c and<br>
recompiled). The simulation runs fine until 6 hours of model time,<br>
when it crashes.<br>
<br>
>From looking at rsl.out.0000 the nudging happens correctly on the<br>
three innermost domains, but fails on d01, because multiples of the<br>
timestep on this domain don't coincide exactly with 6h, whereas they<br>
do on the other domains (timesteps of 81s, 27s, 9s, 3s). The exact<br>
error given is:<br>

-------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
Is there a way to fix this, other than selecting a timestep that ensures<br>
the fdda times are an integer multiple of the timestep? I have tried<br>
this run with<br>
WRF 3.1.1 previously and didn't have any problems with the nudging.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Will.<br>
