The u and v series provided by AWI contained many short gaps
that we closed with linear, or in a few cases predictive,
interpolations. One long gap remains in lines 6332 (1600 02
Jun 1999) through 6367 (0300 04 Jun 1999).

During an extreme blowover on 5 and 6 May 1999 the pressure
sensor reached the upper boundary of its range at 361.7 db.
