<div dir="ltr">Hi I am running wrf 3.6 with two way nesting. After the spinning up on outer domain, the program stopped without any warning or errors. in other words, the program simply stopped at the beginning of the nest domain start time. I wonder whether this is an issue of parent_grid_ratio (=15), time step or the vertical lvls. Please help. Thanks.<br>
