Abstract

The Hourly Precipitation Composite was formed from several data sources (i.e., National Climatic Data Center Hourly Precipitation data, National Centers for Environmental Prediction, and the precipitation data extracted from the NESOB-97 Hourly Surface Composite). Data from these sources were quality controlled and merged to form this precipitation composite.
