Description

I’m trying to calculate cloud top temperature with wrf.ctt using MPAS outputs. I post-processed the outputs by interpolating to lat and lon grid and isobaric levels. Unfortunately, when I run the cell with the function on my Jupyterhub notebook it stays stuck. I tried using just a small bit of the data and still it never stops running. While it was running it looked like the resource usage wasn’t doing anything- at least after the first 2 seconds or so. Any help would be much appreciated!

Research direction

Start by reproducing the wrf.ctt call in the JupyterHub notebook with the small interpolated MPAS dataset described in the report. Compare its behavior with supported WRF outputs and document whether the hang is reproducible; done means identifying a confirmed cause or a clear supported-input limitation.
