I am running WRF for 48 hours over Indian region with (27km, 9km, 3km) resolution for 3 nested domains. I'm doing same experiment for number of cases but for one case WRF gives an error " * points exceeded cfl=2 in domain d01 at time 2017-09-14_00:00:00 hours" while running wrf.exe. I tried different time steps and tried changing number of processors also but nothing worked fine. The errors for different time steps and processors are given below:

The same worked fine for start_date = 2017_09_13 with start_hour = 12 and start_date = 2017_09_15 with start_hour = 12 but it gave same error for start_date = 2017_09_15 with start_hour = 00 then I changed start_date = 2017_09_14 and start_hour = 00 still it gave the same error. I'm using gfs data for WPS.
