WY King Air Wyoming Cloud Radar Data and Imagery
https://data.eol.ucar.edu/dataset/87.057

Summary
This dataset includes data collected from the Wyoming Cloud Radar during RICO.
The Wyoming Cloud Radar (WCR) is an observational system for the study of
cloud structure and composition. It is installed principally on the Wyoming
KingAir. Operating at 95 GHz (3 mm wavelength), the radar provides
high-resolution measurements of reflectivity, velocity and polarization
fields. Data are available for the following days: Nov 26 (test data) Dec 7,
9, 10, 13, 14, 16, 17, 18, 19, and Jan 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 17,
18, 19, 21, 23, 24.
