STORM-FEST WPL Boundary Layer Profilers
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/2.18

Summary
NOAA/WPL operated 5 boundary layer profilers (915 MHz) in the STORM-FEST
boundary layer network near Seneca KS. They were equipped with RASS and
provided vertical profiles of winds and temperature at 30 min intervals. Winds
were measured at 100 m resolution gates from 0.2 - 3.1 km and at 400 m
reslution from 0.4 - 5 km. Temperatures from RASS were measured up to about 2
km.
