GTS PACS Region Land-Based Precipitation Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/15.104

Summary
This data set contains all land-based precipitation observations available
from GTS over the region from 30 N to 60 S latitude and 30 to 150 W longitude
as collected by NCAR/SCD. It includes site identifier information, wind speed
and direction, surface and sea level pressure, air temperature, and dew point
depression. These data have undergone no quality control. See the README for
more details.
