ARWpost Problems

This post was from a previous version of the WRF&MPAS-A Support Forum. New replies have been disabled and if you have follow up questions related to this post, then please start a new thread from the forum home page.

Could you please give me some guidelines on how to modify the dates in the ctl file?

for ctl file created from the WRF online tutorials, I have managed to convert it to nc file. When I open it ("test.nc" file )in Python, the ere is no start date. I see, that all 17 hours have been combined. However, the start date is not shown.

For the files, that I generated ( I mean for my study). I cannot convert the "test.ctl" to the "test.nc" file. The following appears:

Could you please help me to convert the "test.ctl" files to "test.nc" files, with the correct dates?
 
Hi !
I am really sorry for disturbing.

Could you please give me any instructions on how I can get the wrf output in txt or csv format?

I have tried to use "read_wrf_nc" utility, to extract temperature from wrfout files, but the final text file contained unknown symbols.

I have tried to use "sdfwrite" option in Grads, but when I tried to define a variable, I got an error.

How, can I modify "ctl" file in Grads, so that "cdo" conversion option works for it?


Thank you very much!

Indira,
When the file is still in .ctl format, you should be able to simply open the file and make modifications, then save the file. After that, you can try to convert the file to .netcdf format if that's what you need.

Unfortunately our group does not manage converting file formats, nor Grads. You will need to refer to the support groups for those other programs for help on these.

And again, our resources are very limited right now, which is why it is taking longer than usual for us to be able to respond to inquiries. During normal times, it's not unusual for it to take a few days for a response. Please keep that in mind. We will try to respond as quickly as we can, while still meeting other mandatory deadlines.
