About 4.8% of the speeds were below the instrument's threshold
and were recorded as zero. The corresponding directions also are
given as zero. A peculiarity of many of the records in this set
is that when a zero speed is given, AWI has interpolated several
(up to a dozen) of the surrounding speeds down to zero. This is
true of the present record.
