Hello Suominet data users,

The old suominet web site was outdated and had some security holes.
Suominet data access is now under the data portal used for the cosmic and
cosmic2 RO data products.

The main information page is here:
https://www.cosmic.ucar.edu/what-we-do/suominet-weather-precipitation-data/

data are under
https://data.cosmic.ucar.edu/suominet/
<https://data.cosmic.ucar.edu/suominet/postProcess/global/y2021/>

broken down as nrt for the hourly products and postProcess which includes
the global network we process.

yearly subdirs have also been introduced to make it easier to navigate.

eg. https://data.cosmic.ucar.edu/suominet/postProcess/global/y2021/

For the hourly products after some period of time the hourly files will be
combined into daily tarballs.

e.g.  current day is SUOh_2021.250.15.00.PWV
<https://data.cosmic.ucar.edu/suominet/nrt/pwvConus/y2021/SUOh_2021.250.15.00.PWV>

data from early Aug.  and previous months is in files like this:

SUOh_PWV_2021.219.tar
<https://data.cosmic.ucar.edu/suominet/nrt/pwvConus/y2021/SUOh_PWV_2021.219.tar>

Regards,

Teresa, suominet team
