Hourly Precipitation Composite
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/40.029

Summary
The Hourly Precipitation Composite was formed from several data sources (i.e.,
National Climatic Data Center Hourly Precipitation data, National Centers for
Environmental Prediction, and the precipitation data extracted from the
NESOB-97 Hourly Surface Composite). Data from these sources were quality
controlled and merged to form this precipitation composite.
