[Wrf-users] missing plotgrids.exe and plotfmt.exe

[Vanisa Surapipith]

Hello Tabish,

Thank you so much for your reply. It has started to save my nerve having tried a number of reinstallations of NCAR Graphics versions without success, as well as putting a number of different gcc versions on the workstation. The NCAR Graphics have worked fine with the test command 'ncargex cpex08 -clean', and so the missing plotgrids.exe and plotfmt.exe has been a mystery...

However, I do not yet know how to use the plotgrids.ncl and plotfmt.ncl. Could you recommend, or give a hint, please?

Best wishes,
Vanisa

Hello Vanisa

This is no bad news. plotgrids.exe often has issues with the compiler. WRF developers are almost going to discontinue with this facility now. In any case it is not necessary for your simulations.

the plotgrids.ncl script does it all for you. It will read in your namelist.wps and plot the domain graphically. That should be enough.

Good luck with your wrfing!!

Dear Sir/Madam,

I try to install WPS on Ubuntu 12.04, after WRF was through. However, I cannot get plotgrids.exe and plotfmt.exe, and have difficulty proceeding with geogrid.

Could you help looking at my attached configure file, please, and I will appreciate any suggestion.

Thank you for your kind attention.

Best wishes,
