The speed sensor appears to have failed during the first 96
days of the record, and we have not included this portion of
the speed series in the database. The first good speed is in
line 2306, 1600 24 Dec 91. (Directions, however, are good throughout.)
The portion of the speed series that is present here contains
a few spikey episodes that may have been caused by instrument
failure; use these data with caution. 

Temperature contains many linear interpolations after mid April
1992.
