Hi!
I am trying to run the WRF with the free data from the ECMWF. So far I have successfully run ungrib and calc_ecmwf and the FILE and PRES files are generated, which I use in namelist.wps to run metgrid but it throws me this error without generating any met_em file.
2022-12-20 16:58:15.167 --- INFORM: PRES at level 200100.000000 already exists; leaving it alone.

2022-12-20 16:58:15.226 --- ERROR: Error in ext_pkg_write_field
Reading a bit I suspect that the SOILHG or SOILGEO variables are not in the free ECMWF data and they are needed to generate the correct fields and even the soil temperature and soil moisture variables are not correct since the following appears when running the metgrid

So I was planning to get the missing variables from the GFS files and generate a hybrid dataset. I was wondering what is the name of the variables that give rise to SOILHG or SOILGEO and soil temperature and humidity?

I am trying to run the WRF with the free data from the ECMWF. So far I have successfully run ungrib and calc_ecmwf and the FILE and PRES files are generated, which I use in namelist.wps to run metgrid but it throws me this error without generating any met_em file.
