Between 12/7 and 12/29 the 23.8-GHz brightness temperature was affected by the presence of 
spikes due to interference that was more active between 12/7 and 12/15 and then 
diminished. The spikes affect the PWV and the LWP as well.

Spikes happen two or three times a day. Review the data to determine where the spikes 
happen and disregard or filter out the affected points.
