Description:
Below is an overview from Janet Martinez, the Mesonet QA manager
of the automated quality assurance results for the March 2002
Oklahoma Mesonet data.
==============================================================
Notes:

On March 1 & 2, most of the state reported snow and a few hours of 

freezing rain. In spite of the fact that the effect of this snow/ice 

event was much less severe than the Jan 30-31 storm, the wind obs at 60 

sites had to be manually flagged for time periods ranging from 3 to 26 

hours due to freezing rain coating the anemometers. Temperatures in the 

state quickly recovered and on March 14, OKC set a record high temp for 

that date of 85 degrees. The southeast part of the state experienced 

heavy rains on two occasions, with Idabel leading the pack at nearly 10 

inches of rain during March. 

 

The Mesonet Technicians began Spring Pass 2002 in March.  During the 

month, they also resolved 75 trouble tickets! In addition to the work

detailed in this report, their work included scheduled replacements of 

10m wind direction monitors (in the past four months, 100 have been 

changed out), and replacement of failed net radiometers, soil moisture 

sensors, ground heat flux plates and soil temp probes. They also 

replaced 7 cup-type anemometers with starting threshold problems 

(likely caused by our three winter ice storms). The initial 

installation of telnet power switches at base stations continued.

 

The data collection software and hardware for the ARS Micronet was 

upgraded to match that used by the Mesonet (upgraded in spring of 2001).

The new collection software is called LoggerNet. Thanks to all involved

in the successful completion of this upgrade.

"Current Tickets" are the unresolved tickets as of the last day of the  

 month.

"Added Tickets" are based on evaluations of parameters averaged over 

 the month at 1800 UTC.  Rain is evaluated as a monthly accumulation. 

"Resolved Tickets" are the problems that were fixed during the entire

 month.

DataStreams:sgp05okmX1.a1, sgp05okmX1.b1, sgp15okmX1.a1, sgp15okmX1.b1, sgpokmX1.01
Description:
The Mesonet station near Marshall was moved on September 25, 2003 to improve accessiblity 
for the Mesonet technicians who visit and maintain the site. 
The new site has the code MRSH. It replaces the old Marshall site that
had the code MARS. Since the latitude and longitude of the stations are
included in the cdf file, users of these data should not have a problem.
