Trinidad Rawinsonde Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/88.059

Summary
This is one of the upper air data sets developed for the Hurricane Rainband
and Intensity Change Experiment (RAINEX). It includes 180 high vertical
resolution (2 second) soundings from Trinidad. (WMO 78970). Soundings were
typically released twice per day (0000 and 1200 UTC) from 6 July to 31 October
2005. This dataset includes sounding during hurricanes: Dennis, Emily, Gert,
Katrina, Ophelia, Rita, and Wilma.
