Dear all,
I have been trying to use RegCM3 to run West African Mesoscale Convective System. My questions are:

(1) Can RegCM3 simulate West African MCS, if yes, at what resolution and the best input data (ERA40 or NCEP reanalysis).

(2) Which of the RegCM out can MCS be observed,  OLR, or is there cloud top temperature in RegCM3 output.

Please help with these questions,  am new to RegCM3
