I
haven't touched this
for awhile, but it dawned on me that I really didn't need WRF HGT data for
my topo data, and I stumbled across something called "readglobe"
<a href="http://grib2v5d.sourceforge.net/readglobe/readglobe.html" class="">http://grib2v5d.sourceforge.net/readglobe/readglobe.html</a>
which allowed me to produce hi-res topo files for my hi-res simulations from
some other DEM's.
If this is of potential interest to you, I can try to excerpt my notes for you.
