Hello Staff,

I am running WRF V3.6.1. I am encountering the following issue: Failed to allocate grid%cldfra_sh(sm31:em31,sm32:em32,sm33:em33). I am able to run real.exe but not wrf.exe. I am attaching my namelist.input. I have tried using different time steps, but have been unsuccessful. Could you please help me trouble shoot the problem.

Best,
Melissa

WRF requested computer memory be allocated to your job, and there wasn't sufficient memory available.

If you are on a computer shared by others, then other user jobs could have interferred.

If not, choices are:

(1) If non-mpi, try running on a computer with more memory.

(2) If running MPI, add more compute nodes.

(3) Reduce the domain size.
