I am trying to run a hurricane simulation and getting the following error when I am running wrf.exe at the last time step. I am not sure why it is complaining at the last time step. I am using NFL data downloaded from NCAR (fnl_20050903_18_00.grib1) . This is my second run and both ended in same error.

Hi,
The error message that's causing the problem is:
Code: 
ERROR: Ran out of valid boundary conditions in file wrfbdy_d01

According to your namelist.input file, you're asking the model to run for 15 days; however, you only have your dates/times set from
2005-08-20_00:00:00 to 2005-09-03_18:00:00

which is only 14 days and 18 hours. When real.exe runs to create the boundary file, it looks at the start/end date/times, so the boundary file was probably only created to end at 2005-09-03_18:00:00, meaning once the model gets to that point, it can't advance any further. If you'd like to run wrf for 15 days, you will need to have input to run WPS and real.exe through the full 15 days, with an ending date/time of 2005-09-04_00:00:00.
