Hi,everyone. I am preparing the meteorology file from 20120401 to 20121030 based on my own domain and faced this error. Now I have check the times stamp in the nc file. It has the file. The only thing I am considered is the geog_data_res when I prepare met_em file in WPS-4.5.

Check your files_list.txt. I would guess you are missing a file, or they are out of order.

I am not quite sure how this part of your run script behaves when you are trying to set the InMetFiles array to list all the wrfout files covering the entire 7 month period.

# Loop through each line in the file (output.txt) and add it to the list
foreach line (`cat /scratch/mnpfubl/2012_wrfout/files_list.txt`)
   set InMetFiles= ($InMetFiles $line)
end

Could you add a echo InMetFiles command prior to calling the MCIP executable to verify all the necessary wrfout files are specified?

Have you verified that either your April 3 or April 4 wrfout file contains the 0:00:00 April 4, 2012 timestep?

files_list.txt (11.2 KB)
here is my text file. I think it doesn’t miss any file but the order is really wrong. I will rearrange it and do it again

I have replied cgnolte with the text file. I have check that 0:00:00 April 4, 2012 timestep is there

It works well now. The order is important. Thanks, I will mark this as solution.
