CDO

Hi all, I'm currently trying to use WRF to simulate some weather events from 1844 for research. To that that end, I have a series of grib2 files I've created using CDO from NOAA reanalysis data NetCDFs that I am trying to use as the boundary conditions, but they seem to be failing in the import; when I try and ungrib them to use them in the model, it completely fails to import them. Looking at it with debug turned on, it is constantly throwing the errors "getdrstemplate: DRS Template 4 not defined." and "ERROR extracting field gf_getfld = 12" and an abridged command line output for one file is in below since it is pretty long.

I imagine it's something to do with the formatting or metadata of the file produced by CDO setting drstemplate=4, which is why I'm posting here, but I cannot figure out where in the file data/metadata that is and how to fix it.

I've uploaded one file that I ran it for as compressed_grib.tar.gz so people can look at the data if needed and would greatly appreciate any advice you all have; I'm still new to CDO and have been bashing my head into this wall for the last 3 days.

• Starting program ungrib.exe ***
  Start_date = 1993-05-22_21:00:00 , End_date = 1993-05-23_21:00:00
  output format is WPS

  and then the 2 above lines repeat like 100 times before ###############################################################################
