National Weather Service High Resolution Radiosonde Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/483.031

Summary
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Weather
Service (NWS) routinely releases radiosondes two times per day (00 and 12 UTC)
and does occasional special releases at other times of day (usually 18 UTC)
from sites across the United States. This data set includes the quality
controlled NWS soundings released from 22 stations located within the
Wintertime Investigation of Transport, Emission, and Reactivity (WINTER)
project domain for the WINTER field phase (1 February 2015 to 15 March 2015).
A total of 1934 quality controlled, high resolution (1-second) soundings are
contained in the final WINTER data set.
