Joe,
Thanks for sending the Makefile.
I found that if I...
(1) compile BUFRLIB using the "-ff2c" argument for gfortran
(2) compile MET using the "-ff2c" argument in the FC_FLAGS line
(3) empty out all of the F2C lines in the Makefile
... MET compiles fine.
I'll try to find a place to post that tip to the MET website.
We'll look forward to seeing you at the MET portion of the WRF-Tutorial. For this time around, the practical session at the Tutorial will simply be going through the recently posted MET Online
Tutorial. If you do have time to step through it, please let us know if you have any suggestions.
Thanks,
John
