Changing the version of WRF output #127

Closed buseyet closed 5 years ago

I need to change the WRF version from 4 to 3. Is there a way for it?

Assuming that you have already installed WRF v3.x on your system, sure -- see this and point to the installation directory. However, if you want to use the pre-compiled binaries we provide -- as we rely on WRF-CMake -- we can only support v4 and above.

I use the gis4wrf in QGIS. The version of WRF in gis4wrf is 4. But I need the outputs in v3 because I will use them in another program (MMIF), and the other program needs WRF outputs in v3.

Thanks for the quick answer

GIS4WRF is not tied to a specific version of WRF. We provide pre-built binaries thorough WRF-CMake for version 4 and above. If you wish to run an older versions of WRF in GIS4WRF, you will need to compile and install WRF on your system yourself. If that is the case, I would suggest downloading the source files for the version you are looking for from the WRF releases page. Please note that we only offer support for WRF-CMake and GIS4WRF. For anything else please see the WRF & MPAS-A Support Forum.
