GCIP/LSA-NW 99 Surface: Hourly Surface Meteorological Composite
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/38.039

Summary
The GCIP/LSA-NW 99 Hourly Surface Composite contains data from several
networks (i.e., Automated Surface Observing System, Colorado Agricultural
Meteorological Network, High Plains Climate Network, Missouri Automated
Agricultural Network, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Profiler
Network, USDA Natural Resource Conservation Service National Water and Climate
Center Soil Climate Analysis Network Soil Moisture/Soil Temperature, National
Climatic Data Center Surface Climatic Database, Montana Department of
Transportation Remote Weather Informational System, and Wyoming Department of
Transportation Roadway Weather Information Systems) for the EAOP 99
LSA-NorthWest domain. Data from these sources were merged and quality
controlled to form this Surface Composite.
