[cid:tamiu-banner.jpg@69e01e6700f24181bf64bfdfa433a67a] We just wanted to figure out if there was an easy way to access specific stations data for whenever we choose watersheds for our models. At present time we don't have something specific that we want but if there is something not that complex that would require a lot of effort on your part that we could then tailor to our needs we would really appreciate it. I could try to write scripts to extract the data if I knew how METAR reports are organized within the LDM feed. For example, one station that we more often use is Cotulla, Texas but it doesn't seem to be in any of the Texas stations I have identified so far using the following statement in my pqact: IDS|DDPLUS ^SAUS.. (....) (..)(..) FILE IDS_DDPLUS/\1/(\2:yyyy)(\2:mm)(\2:dd)T\3.txt I figured this would pull data from all stations in the United States but only 59 or 60 folders get created And using the station identifier in that statement does not yield results P Please consider the environment before printing this email. ________________________________ [cid:poweredbytamiu.png@34977e31db894e73b6d85ef8669eb37e] Arturo Diaz, Jr. Programmer I (CEES) Biology and Chemistry LBVSC 346 5201 University Blvd. Laredo, TX 78041 Tel.

I may have some time over the next 2 days or so to help write a regex that will accomplish this. gerry On Tue, Oct 15, 2013 at 10:43 AM, Diaz, Jr., Arturo <arturo.diaz@xxxxxxxxx<mailto:arturo.diaz@xxxxxxxxx>> wrote: Good morning, I was wondering if anybody had information as to how the METAR reports are distributed within the LDM. I have found the information about the WMO header required to request file this data as text files. However, it seems as if some stations are responsible to transmit reports from other stations as well because I cannot request METAR reports from specific stations. When requesting all reports from the United States and filing the files in folder based on the ICAO ID only 60 folders get created and those 60 stations' reports contain reports for many stations. Does anyone know if there is hierarchy for reporting METAR reports? Any help or guidance will be much appreciated. Thank you very much in advance.
