Description of the issue

The e26f21f fire model changes in WRF4.0 were done with MPI in mind only. The changes include replacement of the level set method and vertical log interpolation of horizontal wind, similar to what was done in 89a2e77b WRF-SFIRE in February 2011. The WRF 4.0 version produces inconsistent results with OpenMP parallelism only, compiled without MPI, and crashes when both OpenMP and MPI are used.
