Justo Sierra Radiosondes

Description

Concerning some radiosondes that were released in July of 2001 in the Caribbean from on board the Justo Sierra. The first few radiosondes released did not take wind data. 0107????gmt.txt are the original text files of the radiosonde data. They appear to be named after the average hour for the radiosonde. The first 2 numbers are for the year, the second 2 for the month, the third 2 for the day, and the last 2 for the GMT hour. So, for example, by opening 01071200gmt.txt we see that it was released on July 11, 2001 at 23:27 GMT and spent over 84 minutes in the air. So, its average hour corresponds to 00:00 GMT on July 12, 2001.
