Final Vetted Weather Data (Version December 3, 2006)(all files are zipped)
--the only changes from August 2005 are some additional 2003-2004 rain and trh files that were acquired from Tank
--the only remaining data that is not in final form is tower station wind (talk to Jaakko directly if you have need of this)
