WRFtailor provides 5 different approaches to tailor and modify WRF input data. All processing inside WRFtailor are carried out by Shell script and NCL codes.

WRFtailor's structure is very similar to `PostWRF Software tool <https://github.com/anikfal/postwrf>`_.

Run the tool:

.. code-block:: bash

    ./wrftailor.sh
