Hi Ashish,
In &domains record, max_doms =2, which means anything for domain 3 in dx and dy would have been ignored.
Cheers,
Basit

Hi Basit,
Why do you have dx and dy higher for domain 3 in comparison to domain 1 and 2?
dx = 7500, 1500, 3333.33,
dy = 7500, 1500, 3333.33,

Hi guys,
I am trying to do a one-way nested run with ndown using wrfchemV3.3.1. I followed the procedure given in http://www.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/OnLineTutorial/CASES/NestRuns/ndown1-2.htm. I am facing problems on step 4 (Run ndown.exe). When i run ndown.exe it crashes in the very beginning but i don't get any error message. I ran ndown.exe with debug_level =100 and the output of rsl.out.0000 is as follows:
NDOWN_EM V3.3.1 PREPROCESSOR

After this line "Entering ext_gr2_joinit" ndown.exe crashes. I tried many things, like turned off the chemistry altogether, but nothing seems to work. I will be grateful if someone could could help in spotting where i am going wrong and how to fix it. Copied below is the namelist.input that i used for ndown.exe.
