GTS Mandatory/Significant Level Sounding Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/126.023

Summary
This is one of the upper air data sets developed for the Pre-Depression
Investigation of Cloud-systems in the Tropics (PREDICT) project. This data set
includes 1287 GTS mandatory and significant level soundings from 24 stations
in the Carribean and Gulf of Mexico region for the period 15 August 2010 to 30
September 2010. Stations typically released soundings at 00 and or 12 UTC.
These data are in the EOL sounding composite format (columnar ascii).
