Montana's RWIS "Specials" Surface Data in QC Format
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/38.037

Summary
Montana's Remote Weather Informational System (RWIS) "Specials" Surface Data
in QC format is one of several surface datasets provided in the GEWEX
Continental-Scale International Project (GCIP) Large Scale Area-North West
(LSA-NW) Enhanced Annual Observing Period (EAOP) 1999. This dataset contains
data for the GCIP LSA-NW EAOP-99 domain and time period. These data were not
quality controlled by the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research
Joint Office for Science Support (UCAR/JOSS).
