Hi,
I'm using WRF V.3.6.1 with the single layer urban canopy model (urban option #1).
Should I rerun real.exe after changing parameters in URBPARM.TBL?
For example, if I change building heights or AH, should I rerun real.exe or can I
just make the change and run wrf.exe?

Thanks
 
I'm not certain if this would affect the real.exe run. We used to just advise to re-run when the surface scheme was modified, but over the years, we have found more reasons to advise to re-run real when any of the physics are changed. So just to be safe, you should go ahead and do it.
