This work is a follow-on guide to running the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model from Aur et al, (2018), Building and Running 1 DAAPS Models: IFRF Postdictions. This guide details running WRF in a nudged configuration, where the u and v wind components, temperature, and moisture within a specified spatial and temporal window, are adjusted towards the observations, radiosonde observations in this case, using WRF's observation nudging technique. The primary modification to this methodology from Aur et al. (2018), is the use of the OBSGRID program to generate the nudging files and the updates to the namelist.input file. These steps, combined with those outlined in Aur et al. (2018), will generate a nudged WRF hindcast (or postdiction) simulation.
