Dear all,
I have to work with wrfout from seasonal model run to visualize the products. I successfully created a .ctl file to read in grads, but the problem Is that, I get ?"entire grid undefined " Why this and how to resolve it? For short time model run say 3 days works fine but for seasons I got stuck. Please help!?
'reinit''set display color white''open wrfout.ctl''set gxout shaded''d t2'
Entire Grid Undefined.
The 'sdfopen wrfout_d02_2015-03-01.nc' gives the following message
Scanning self-describing file: wrfout_d02_2015-03-01.nc
udunits(3): syntax error:

gadsdf: SDF file has no discernable X coordinate.
To open this file with GrADS, use a descriptor file with an XDEF entry.

Hi,
Can you send the CTL file ? have you got use a sdfopen function in a wrf
netcdf output file ?
