Hourly dewpoint temperature in degrees Fahrenheit and three-digit data-source flag associated with the data, January 1, 1948 - September 30, 2015
The text file "Dewpoint temperature.txt" contains hourly data and associated data-source flag from January 1, 1948, to September 30, 2015. The primary source of the data is the Argonne National Laboratory, Illinois. The first four columns give year, month, day and hour of the observation. Column 5 is the data in degrees Fahrenheit. Column 6 is the data-source flag consist of a three-digit sequence in the form "xyz". They indicate if the dewpoint temperature data are original or missing, the method that was used to fill the missing periods, and any other transformations of the data. The user of the data should consult Over and others (2010) for the detailed documentation of this hourly data-source flag series.
