NCAR S-Pol radar time series data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/387.009

Summary
S-Pol Radar full time series data in IWRF format collected continuously during
the FRONT (Front Range Observational Network Testbed) project. Each file
covers about 15 minutes of S-Pol operation. See the FRONT S-Pol Data
Availability 2014-2015 document linked below to check on data availability.

Each order can contain a maximum of 16 GB of data (~1 day). For orders larger
than 1 day, it may be preferable for you to access these data via a loaner
external hard drive. Please email the Point of Contact to request these data.
