NCAR HCR radar time series data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/590.010

Summary
HIAPER Cloud Radar (HCR) data collected aboard the NSF/NCAR GV HIAPER
(Gulfstream-V High-performance Instrumented Airborne Platform for
Environmental Research, HIAPER) (N677F) during OTREC (Organization of Tropical
East Pacific Convection). The data were collected during 22 research flights
which took place between August 7 and October 2, 2019, over the East Pacific
and extreme SW Caribbean Ocean. This data set contains time series of the
measured I/Q data. If you don't know what time series data is you probably do
not want this data set. This data set contains raw measurements that have not
and will not been modified. Note: Each data file is ~10 G large. Please do not
order more than 3 minutes of data at one time.
