STORM-WAVE 15 Minute Precipitation Composite

Summary

The Fifteen Minute Precipitation Composite was formed from several data sources (i.e., Arkansas-Red Basin River Forecast Center, National Climatic Data Center Fifteen Minute Precipitation dataset, Oklahoma Mesonet Precipitation data, and the precipitation data extracted from the STORM-WAVE Five Minute Surface Composite). Data from these sources (over one thousand stations) were merged and quality controlled to form this precipitation composite.
