[Wrf-users] Re: wrfprep.pl and NNRP

[ojorba]

Hi Don, I found the same problem with NNRP data. It was related to PSFC 
field. Try the following:

- Save all GRIB data 3D and 2D in the same directory.
- Modify Vtable.NNRP adding the PSFC line
- Modify Vtable.NNRPSFC deleting PSFC line

follow the instructions to run wrfsi. The problem is that PSFC has the 
same dimensions as the 3D GRIB fields and it is defined in 
Vtable.NNRPSFC which only contains 2D fields with different dimensions.

Hope it helps,

Oriol
