WRF-CMake 4.2.1

Download the latest WRF-CMake Binary Releases

We currently provide WRF-CMake and WPS-CMake pre-built binary distributions for Windows, macOS and Linux (RPM-based and Debian-based distribution-compatible).

You can choose between MPI-enabled (dmpar) and single-core (serial).

Note that if you want to launch WRF-CMake and WPS-CMake built in dmpar to run on multiple processes, you need to have MPI installed on your system.

• On Windows, download and install Microsoft MPI (msmpisetup.exe) from https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=56727.
• On macOS you can get it though Homebrew using brew update && brew install open-mpi
• On Linux, use your package manager to download mpich (version ≥ 3.0.4). E.g. sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install mpich on Debian-based systems or sudo yum install mpich on RPM-based system like CentOS.

If you are looking to download WPS-CMake (serial and dmpar) see https://github.com/WRF-CMake/wps/releases.
