| Description: | Below is an overview from Chris Fiebrich, the Mesonet QA manager
of the automated quality assurance results for the March 2000
Oklahoma Mesonet data.
There are a few special events in the March Mesonet data that you may
want to be aware of. These include:
Date Station Parameter(s)
---- ------- ------------
3/03 CLOU WMAX Gust to 89 mph during severe
thunderstorm; you can
disregard the automated QA flag
3/02 ARNE PRES Mesolow caused ARNE to be
spatially inconsistent with
neighboring sites; disregard
the automated QA flags

OKLAHOMA MESONETWORK/ARS QUALITY ASSURANCE REPORT
for the month of March, 2000
Based upon observations taken at 1800 UTC each day
Prepared by Chris Fiebrich (qamgr@redrock.ocs.ou.edu)
===============================================================
Notes:
One last ice storm... Mother Nature coated much of western
Oklahoma with freezing rain on March 16-17, causing upwards of
40 wind monitors to freeze solid. These observations were
flagged in Qualparm to indicate their suspicious readings.
