Unsuccessful in executing metgrid.exe

[Rajarshi Sharma]

Hello,

I have successfully executed ungrib and geogrid but while trying to execute metgrid, it says
"ERROR: The mandatory field TT was not found in any input data."

Can you please let me know which field it is exactly referring to? Is it the SST dataset which I have not included btw

Thanks

This error message indicates that there is no temperature data in your intermediate file.
What are the data you ungrib? And which Vtable did you use?

Hello, I have ungribbed 6-hourly data format from NCAEP FNL Global Tropospheric analyses CISL RDA: NCEP FNL Operational Model Global Tropospheric Analyses, continuing from July 1999 . I have used the Vtable.GFS.

Hi,
I downloaded the data of NCEP FNL from CISL RDA, you mentioned. I run a test case and all works fine. I use Vtable.GFS and follow the standard WPS steps. Please see the attached log file that shows variables included in met_em files.
