Listed in National Center for Atmospheric Research
This data set contains the Nexrad Information Dissemination Service (NIDS) Hourly Precipitation Data Set.
Description
This data set is the 1-hour surface rainfall accumulation running total product and is generated when ever precipitation echoes are detected. It covers a range of 230 km with a resolution of 1.1 by 1.1 nmi.
It is updated once every volume scan (typically every 5-10 min) and includes 16 data levels. Data are available for most periods during the UMRBPP (5 April to 5 May 1999). Data are available from the Rapid City, SD (KUDX) radar site.
