ICECHIP: National Weather Service High Resolution Radiosonde Data

Summary

Vertical profiles of temperature, moisture, and wind from 28 United States National Weather Service radiosonde locations in and near the domain of the ICECHIP (In-situ Collaborative Experiment for the Collection of Hail In the Plains) campaign. A total of 2143 radiosondes are included in this dataset.

Archive note

Most stations had typical releases times of 00 and 12 UTC. However, a number of stations had variations on this schedule during ICECHIP.
