UAH RaDAPS Micro Rain Radar (MRR) Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/541.048

Summary
This data set contains vertical profiles of drop size distributions and
derived rain rate, liquid water content and fall velocity from the University
of Alabama-Huntsville (UAH) Micro Rain Radar (MrR) during the 2017 VORTEX-SE
field season. The MRR is part of the UAH Rapidly Deployable Atmospheric
Profiling System (RaDAPS).
