It looks like the command "yum install netcdf" only installed the netCDF C 
library, which is the most commonly used netCDF library.  However, for WRF 
you also need the netCDF-Fortran library, which depends on an installed 
netCDF library.

The old netCDF version 4.1.3 included Fortran and C libraries in the same
distribution, but all later versions have netCDF-Fortran in a separate
distribution package.  I don't see "netcdf-fortran" as a package provided
by yum, but building it from source is not hard, if you already have the
netCDF C library installed.

You can download netCDF-Fortran from here:

and instructions for building, testing, and installing it are here:
