Greetings,
I am running WRF with chemistry and 6-h nudging. Everything is going fine, except that the wrfout files are being dumped out at 6-h intervals instead of daily intervals. I have played around with the namelist, but to no success. Even when I set the history_interval to something ridiculous, I still get wrfout files output every 6 hours. Any suggestions? Please see below the namelist.
Best wishes,
