Hello WRF community,
I'm currently running WRF+WPS successfully, and now trying to apply observation nudging using FDDA.
I would like to ingest ground-based observation data stored in .csv format (see example in Fig. 1) into WRF using obsgrid.exe, without using obsproc.exe.
Fig. 1: Observation data – original .csv format
(Figure shows weather station data such as temperature, pressure, wind direction/speed, etc.)

Fig. (1) observation data - .csv format
To achieve this, I wrote a Python script (convert_csv_to_obsgrid.py, attached below) to convert the .csv files into the required format for obsgrid.exe.
The third attachment (obs_input:2025-03-04_12) is an example of the converted observation input file.
However, when I run obsgrid.exe, I encounter errors such as:
help me...plz....
