I am using a trial version of arcgis pro. I need to generate inputs for wrf hydro simulation. The pre-processing part has to be done on arcgis. Tutorial videos shows that geogrid files can be processed through arcmap. I am unable to process the geogrid files in arcgis pro. Is there some function that arcmap does and arcgis pro doesn't ?

Hi there,

The pre-processing packages provided by NCAR's website are written and designed for non-Pro ArcGIS applications.

Pre-Processing Tools | NCAR Research Applications Laboratory | RAL 

From what I understand, ArcGIS Pro uses Python 3, not Python 2. This may cause inconsistencies. 

Python migration from 10.x to ArcGIS Pro—ArcPy Get Started | ArcGIS Desktop 

Because ArcGIS Pro will eventually replace ArcMap, there may be some time before a WRF-Hydro ArcGIS pre-processing package is available for ArcGIS-Pro users. For now, just try and use ArcMap for processing until all features of ArcMap are accessible in ArcGIS-Pro. Hope this background information helps.
