Hi wrf team. I am currently experiencing a problem when I try running sf_urban=2. It would immediately crash, but upon looking at the namelist, all seems to be right. I looked at the rsl errors but it doesnt indicate any errors. It just stops running. I am using WRF3.9.1 version. Attached are rsl.errors and namelist in the nextcloud named rsl.tar.gz. Thanks team!
 
If the model crashed immediately, it often indicates that the input data is wrong. Please double check your wrfinputa nd wrfbdy files to make sure they are fine. Also, Please upload your namelist.input for me to take a look.
 
Hi. Sorry for the late response. Your suggestion worked and I was able to run model. Although, I am encountering another problem right now. When I run WRF with sf_urban_physics = 1, I encounter this fatal error.

Code:
- FATAL CALLED ---------------
FATAL CALLED FROM FILE:  <stdin>  LINE:     771
ZDC + Z0C + 2m is larger than the 1st WRF level Stop in subroutine urban - change ZDC and Z0C
-------------------------------------------
How do I resolve this one?

Here's is my namelist for this run,
