save slp to netcdf

[fipoucat]

I extracted slp from wrf output using wrf-python. I can print the output but want to save it in a netcdf file.
I wonder how to do it within wrf-python?

I am in the same boat. @fipoucat, have you been able to save a netcdf file using wrf-python?

Hello, you can use the xarray library. This function and the link can help you. #91 def write_xarray_to_netcdf(xarray_array, output_path,mode='w', format='NETCDF4', group=None, engine=None, encoding=None): """writes and xarray in a netcdf format outputfile Uses the xarray typical for wrf-python.

I suspect they are running into encoding errors when they try: one would need to delete the variables with non-numeric data.

Mostly this means the coordinates in which wrf-python stores the Cartopy, Basemap, or Proj representation of the geospatial map projection. One might be able to ask the object for a string to save as a coordinate or a dictionary one could save as attributes of a variable so one could re-create the projection later.

EDIT:
That is what you are saying, and the suggestion is the function from this comment, though without formatting due to being sent as an email.
The important bit is ds.attrs["projection"] = str(ds.attrs["projection"])
