WPS Version 3.9.1
Version 3.9.1 of the WRF Pre-Processing System (WPS) was released on 17 August 2017.
Note: The V3 WRF model is NOT backward compatible with old V2 input files. One must rerun WPS to generate data for real/wrf.
Also see 'Known Problems' in this release.
Improvement and Bug Fixes
- ungrib:
- Limit the post-2017 NCEP GFS soil moisture to a maximum of .468. Values larger than .468 are actually flags for land ice points and should be missing, but missing values cause metgrid to run very slowly. This change is more consistent with ungrib versions prior to 3.9.0.1.
- Fixed an issue with PGI compiler when compiling updated g2 libraries.
- Updated to handle new (2017) GFS data (3.9.0.1)
- Updated ncarg_libs to be consistent with recent versions of NCAR Graphics (3.9.0.1)
- Fixed a few small things in the clean script (3.9.0.1)
- g2 library is updated to match NCEP's g2lib.v3.1 (3.9.0.1)
- geogrid:
- Two datasets from underground water were removed (not used).
metgrid:
- For MPAS input, only process fields with METGRID.TBL entries.
