I am new to WRF. This is the exact script I was looking for automating WRF run. Installed WRF successfully by follwoing this link http://www2.mmm.ucar.edu/wrf/OnLineTutorial/compilation_tutorial.php . That is the method recommended by ucar as well. Why dont you show as some real case exaple - starting from grib data download to getting analysed graphical output products (ofcours using wrftools).

Very good point. The documentation has lagged behind the code development somewhat. I'll try and put a complete example up, and it would be good to know whether you are able to use the tool, as currently it has only been me using it.

Well, I have not tried but will do that when I get time. I have a suggestion. People like to have a ready-made package of any software program. Therefore, why don't you include a install/uninstall script to make everything automated, atleast python portion of it. As I mentioned earlier, step by step example by using downloaded grib files is greatly appreciated (keep in mind about the installation directories as mentioned in the first post).
