Re: How to get the Time series plot at a point giving the latitude and longitude from WRF output

The WRF latitudes/longitudes do have a time dimension:

        float XLAT(Time, south_north, west_east) ;
        float XLONG(Time, south_north, west_east) ;

However, none of the WRF files I have looked at have grids
that change with time. [If you find one please let us know.]

You could always check:

        f = addfile("...", "r")
        xlat = f->XLAT
        
        dim_lat = dimsizes(xlat)
        ntim = dim_lat(0)
        
        if (.not.all(xlat(0,:,:).eq.xlat(ntim-1,:,:))) then
            print("grid changes with time")
            exit
        end if
        :
        :

Since I have no experience with how WRF moves grids with time,
a WRF person would best anser the question: wrfhelp_at_ucar.edu
good luck
