CFL errors

Hello!

I am trying to set up wrf at 9 km resolution and lambert projection for a 612x452 domain over North America, and I am getting the following error message in the wrf log. I have attached the wrf log and namelist input files. I have tried runs with a smaller timestep (18 sec) and increased epssm value, but still get this error. I would appreciate any suggestions.

Thank you,

Hi Shubhi,
If you issue this:
do you see several more cfl errors?

Hi!

Thanks for your response.
Yes, I see this error in multiple log files. I have shared only one log file here.

What type of input data are you using that has 138 levels? Is the p_top of the model really only 10000 Pa? If not, try to decrease that to 5000 and see if that helps any.
