Hello all,
I am simulating the Typhoon MANGKHUT in 2018 (from 20180900 to 20180917). I have set up three domains with resolutions of 12 km, 4 km, and 1.3 km and I am using a two-way nested setup, using spectral nudging, with one wrfinput file.
My issue is that the model crashed with a segmentation fault at **20180916T16:00:00** (Also attached namelist.input).The error information which I got is as follows:

=================================
Since the typhoon had already made landfall by this time, a huge negative (-993.397 W/m2) sensible heat flux was found in an urban grid at 20180916T16:00:00 (see figure), At that time, I was using sf_urban_physics = 0.

What I already tested:
(1) I checked other users' error logs ((RESOLVED) WRF Single-layer, UCM crashed) and tried modifying the TS_SCHEME in URBPARM_LCZ.TBL and URBPARM.TBL from 1 (4-layer model) to 2 (force-restore method), but it didn’t resolve the issue.
(2) Then, I changed sf_urban_physics = 1, 1, 0, but the model still crashed at 20180916T16:00:00 with the same error.
(3) However, when I set sf_urban_physics = 1, 1, 1, the model ran successfully without crashing, but I encountered the following warning:
**"Nest movement is disabled because of namelist settings. UCMs/Noah LSM cannot be specified with moving nests. Movement disabled."**
### Follow-up Questions:
(1) How should I resolve this issue?
(2) If setting sf_urban_physics = 1, 1, 1 disables nest movement, even though the model completes successfully, does this mean the results from the moving nested domain are incorrect?
