Eta MOLTS Derived Soundings
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/2.74

Summary
The GCIP/GIST Eta MOLTS Derived Soundings dataset contains NCEP Eta Model
Location Time Series (MOLTS) derived soundings from 67 locations within the
GIST domain (33- 40N and 91-107W). These include only 67 of the 257 MOLTS
locations and only for the initial analysis time (i.e. no forecast derived
soundings) and only the state parameters (pressure, temperature, dew point,
relative humidity, wind speed, wind direction, and altitude). The complete
output (including hourly forecast derived soundings with all 32 surface and 12
upper level parameters)parameters) in original BUFR format are available from
NCAR/SCD.
