Mexico SMN-CNA Rawinsonde Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/88.041

Summary
This is one of the upper air data sets developed for the Hurricane Rainband
and Intensity Change Experiment (RAINEX). It includes 94 high resolution
vertical (2 second) rawinsonde data from the Servicio Meteorol&ocaute;gico
Nacional (SMN) Comisión Nacional del Agua (CNA), which forms part of the
Secretaríade Medio Ambiente y Recursos Naturales (SEMARNAT). There are 2
stations (Merida and Vera Cruz) that measure pressure, temperature, humidity
and wind that are released twice a day. The SMN home page can be found here:
