The problem of the auxiliary pressure level output in WRFPLUS

[Jason Hou]

Hello.
When I was using the auxiliary pressure level output in WRF, for example, I just add
&diags
p_lev_diags = 1
num_press_levels = 1,
press_levels = 50000,
in the namelist.input and
auxhist23_interval = 360,
frames_per_auxhist23 = 1,
io_form_auxhist23 = 2,
in the &time_control part, if I run wrf for 1 day, there should be 5 auxhist23_d01 files when it is done and there is no problem in WRF.
However, when I was using the wrf_run in WRFPLUS, with the same change of the namelist as in WRF, I can only get one auxhist23_d01_2016-01-21_00:00:00 file, which is at the final time, so my problem is how to get the other 4 auxhist23_d01 files in WRFPLUS(especially the initial auxhist23_d01_2016-01-20_00:00:00 file)? I have attached my namelist in this post.

THANKS!!

Hi Jason,
Did you ever manage to solve this? I'm having exactly the same problem.
Thanks,

Sorry, I haven't solved this problem yet. Currently I am only using the original WRFV3 so I can get all auxhist23 files, actually, I find that it is better avoid using the wrf_run in WRFPLUS because it's unstable especially when your run_days is long and your resolution is high.
