    setenv CRDNAME      <GRIDDESC name for WRF coordinate system>
    setenv CROGRID      <GRIDDESC name for     cross-point grid>
    setenv DOTGRID      <GRIDDESC name for       dot-point grid>
    setenv STXGRID      <GRIDDESC name for X-stagger-point grid>

Summary

Program wrfgriddesc will read the header-data from a WRF-netCDF output file and create a GRIDDESC file for the grids used by the WRF file. You will need to specify the GRIDDESC-names for the map projection and for all four grids (cross-point, dot-point, X-staggered, Y-staggered) used by the WRF file, as described above.
