WRF install with GNU!

Add something similar to .bashrc

*Note you will need to modify the paths for your specific environment. *Note this includes a setting to the path for “DIR.” This is just for the sake of simplifying installation.**

export PATH=.:/*full-path-to-netcdf-directory*/netcdf/bin:/*full-path-to-libs-directory/*bin:${PATH}
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/*full-path-to-libs-directory*/libs/lib:/*full-path-to-libs-directory*/libs/netcdf/lib:/*full-path-to-libs-directory*/libs/grib2/lib
export JASPERLIB=/*full-path-to-libs-directory*/libs/grib2/lib
export JASPERINC=/*full-path-to-libs-directory*/libs/grib2/include
export NETCDF=/*full-path-to-netcdf-directory*/netcdf

export DIR=/*full-path-to-libs-directory*/libs
export CC=gcc
export CXX=g++
export FC=gfortran
export FCFLAGS="-m64"
export F77=gfortran
export FFLAGS="-m64"
export LDFLAGS="-L/*full-path-to-libs-directory*/libs/lib -L/*full-path-to-libs-directory*/libs/netcdf/lib -L/*full-path-to-libs-directory*/libs/grib2/lib"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/*full-path-to-libs-directory*/libs/include -I/*full-path-to-libs-directory*/libs/netcdf/include -I/*full-path-to-libs-directory*/libs/grib2/include"

Source the .bashrc file

source .bashrc

Make a directory to install all the libraries.
