This is causing ungrib to extract incorrect data (at 80 m above surface) for surface fields. If your domain includes a pole or the Prime Meridian (0° longitude), program real may abort. If your domain lies elsewhere, the real program may not abort, but you will likely get incorrect surface fields (e.g. stronger surface winds).<br>
</span><strong>Solution</strong>: A file <a href="http://www.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/src/fix_wps/rd_grib2.F">(rd_grib2.F) </a>needs to be replaced in the /WPS/ungrib/src directory. This new file contains a solution to the problem. Replace the old file with the new and recompile WPS (no need to reconfigure)."</i></font></blockquote>
