Hello all,

I'm running WRF for a regional climate run, and am getting wrfout files far too frequently based on my namelist.input options. I have history_interval = 60, 360, and frames_per_outfile = 1,1, but am getting multiple wrfout files per minute. I have attached the namelist.input file, and any help would be really appreciated.

Thanks,
Brian

Hi Brian,
Can you also attach your output log file (e.g., rsl.out.0000) and issue the following command:
Code:
ls -ls wrfout* >& log.ls.txt
and attach that log.ls.txt file, as well? Thanks!
 
Hi Kelly,

Sorry for the slow response. I was able to fix this issue with a suggestion to include the following lines in namelist.input:

adjust_output_times = .true.,
override_restart_timers = .true.,

Thanks,
Brian
