Seems to be the same issue as with v2 https://sourceforge.net/p/vapor/bugs/1259/ XLONG/XLAT coordinates are in meters for idealized simulations (not degrees, as read by vapor)
VAPOR3 does indeed support idealized WRF simulations. See #1947 .
However, older WRF data sets (pre WRF 4.x) don't have the necessary NetCDF attributes for VAPOR to determine if a simulation output is idealized or not. The "yochen" data set reported in this bug is from WRF version 2.x
Thanks for the update! Seems to be the same issue as with VAPOR2. What specific attributes does VAPOR 3 require? (if you are able to add a short documentation it would be very helpful, I am using WRF v3.x and it fails the same)
Thanks again!

Do you have a WRF dataset that demonstrates this problem that you can share with us?
The datafiles I have are quite large (~33GB). As with other WRF v3.x it’s not CF compliant. You can download it at: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JZw3Arg_BKoEkQhElpIdxNvBn7KI27IN/view?usp=sharing
This is a simulation using WRF-SFIRE (based on model version 3.4) configured in idealized large-eddy simulation mode. It contains the main grid on XLAT XLONG (in meters, though wrf stores the data with units of degrees), and a fire subgrid on FXLAT and FXLONG (similarly in meters).
If the download is too much, you can see the wrfout header from a similar simulation attached to this email.

Edit: 1/21/2020
Idealized WRF files (such as yochen, described below) now result in an infinite loop.
===============
The extents seem to be wrong with WRF/yochen
To reproduce: 1) Spin up Vapor with WRF/yochen/wrfout_d05_2005-07-10_00:10:00 2) The domain appears as a thin line. See screenshot.
