[gradsusr] Converting wrf model out to grads readerable format

Thu Jun 25 12:35:30 EDT 2015

Charles –

This is a WRF-EMS question, not a GrADS question.  Looking at the error, you are probably running the command from the wrong directory (ems_post is run one directory up).   You can find the full WRF-EMS documentation at http://strc.comet.ucar.edu/software/newrems/.  If you are still having problems, there is a public forum linked at that address that can better service your question.

Dear all,
I am still getting challenges in converting wrfems model output to grads  readable format. This is what I tried and the error I found.

If it is grib2 data, try using g2ctl.pl<http://g2ctl.pl> utility to create the ctl file and gribmap to generate the index file. Then you can use Grads to display it.

Hope this helps.
