Automated Surface Observing System (ASOS) 1-min Data
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/85.059

Summary
This data set contains 1-minute resolution surface meteorological data from
the Automated Surface Observing System (ASOS) stations located across the
BAMEX region. These data were retrieved from two sources during the BAMEX
period (12 May to 09 July 2003). Data for some stations were retrieved via
modem by the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research/Joint Office for
Science Support (UCAR/JOSS) several times per day. Each of these files
contains 12 hours of data for a single station so some overlap between files
is expected. The remaining stations were downloaded from the National Climatic
Data Center (NCDC) monthly. Each of these files contains one months worth of
data for a single station. The data are in ASCII format.
