Alternative title(s)

d505001

Abstract

The 15-minute precipitation observations contained in this set were obtained from the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC). The sites are located in the contiguous U.S., Alaska, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, Hawaii and other Pacific Islands. The data mainly begin in May 1971, but there is a very small amount of data in 1970. There are as many as 2300 stations, but periods of record vary widely among the stations.
