Hi grads users.  
I am running WRF 3.0 for 9km domain with fnl data. 
Model runs fine. and I am post processing the O/p using ARWpost and grads for viewing the o/p. 
But when I run Grads, I am unable to open the binary file. 
I changed OPTIONS as : template and byteswapped in the ctl file, But nothing is being plotted. 
 
 
ga-> open wrf_d01_2013-05-21_00.ctl
Scanning description file:  wrf_d01_2013-05-21_00.ctl
Open Error:  Can't open binary data file
  File name = wrf_d01_2013-05-21_00.dat
ga-> reinit
No hardcopy metafile open
All files closed; all defined objects released
All GrADS attributes have been reinitialized
 
This step is after I added the option template !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ga-> open wrf_d01_2013-05-21_00.ctl
Scanning description file:  wrf_d01_2013-05-21_00.ctl
Data file wrf_d01_2013-05-21_00.dat is open as file 1
