Mandatory and Significant Level Sounding Data Set
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/35.001

Summary
This data set consists of mandatory and significant level sounding data for
the UMRBPP. It contains soundings from Dodge City and Topeka, KS; Denver and
Grand Junction, CO; Omaha and North Platte, NE; Aberdeen and Rapid City, SD;
Riverton, WY; Bismarck, ND; and Glasgow and Great Falls, MT. The data were
retrieved from NOAA/FSL for the periods 5 April to 19 April and 28 April to 5
May 1999. For the period from 21 April to 27 April the data were retrieved
from FSU. The NOAA/FSL data are in a columnar ASCII format while those from
FSU are in the GTS format. Please see the README file for more information.
