forecasting with WRF

[malmarho]

Good afternoon

Let say i want to use the WRF to create a forecast for the next 3 days,
what should be modified?
where can i get the fnl files from ?

is there a tutorial i can read?

In the data available in the website https://www2.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/users/download/free_data.html
we have the Realtime Datasets from NOAA, how can they be used?

i followed this online tutorial https://www2.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/OnLineTutorial/index.php
but have failed to find the connection to how it can be actually used for forecasts?
