Upper air data download from Iowa #334
Comments
Lovely. |
Fascinating isn't it? |
Ok - this appears to be due to the fact that the IA State data has many missing values. I'm not totally sure I understand what is going on. Here are the first 29 lines of the same sounding (5/10/12 @ 12 UTC for OUN) from each and the text dump from IA State. I'm confused by the information from Wisconsin missing from IA State and some of the values not being the same. Wisconsin

Wyoming. 🙄 Any thoughts @akrherz? |
Hey, my data is perfect, what is being alleged here? :) My upstream is of two sources
I should be able to dig at this later today and see what's up. |
Eh, I am unsure what to say, my processing of what is provided by the rucsoundings service appears to be accurate. Do you have a contact at Wyoming, who perhaps could explain why their data is better? |
I think what I'm most confused about is where all of the partially complete levels are coming from? |
I've run into this issue with using data from FSL (https://esrl.noaa.gov/raobs/). It appears that it is the raw combination of TTAA (mandatory levels), TTBB (significant temperature levels), and PPBB (significant wind levels) data. My guess would be that Wyoming is interpolating to obtain their values at all of the levels. |
Oh that's right! Our asinine sounding system has different significant levels for winds and temperature. |
That's the "promise" of BUFR. |
When downloading the same sounding (May 10, 2010 00Z) from Wyoming and Iowa I get different plots. The Iowa download produces a segmented plot. See attached.
