Precipitation (Daily) Multi-Network Composite
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/77.115

Summary
The Daily Precipitation Composite was formed from several data sources (i.e.,
National Centers for Environmental Prediction daily precipitation, National
Weather Service Cooperative Observers daily precipitation data, and the daily
precipitation data extracted from the IHOP_2002 Mesonet: Hourly Precipitation
Composite). Data from these sources were quality controlled and merged to form
this precipitation composite. In July 2005 the Oklahoma Climatological Survey
reprocessed and updated the Oklahoma Mesonet surface meteorological data. EOL
has not updated the composite files, however the newer OKMESO data is
available.
