300m south sonic
Not sure when this happened, but suspect during either the Jun 4th or 5th lightening storms.

Sonic still working after being hit. No signs of damage to north sonic

250m south boom
For some reason the south boom at 250m is shorter than all the rest. Neither Bruce nor I can remember why this is or when it happened. 250m except for LUMEX and XPIA has not been instrumented.

Measurement from the center of the sonic path to the south leg is 3.15m

Sonics and T/RH at 300, 250, 200, and 150m have all been removed.

BAO Ceilometer and Sodar data files
Here is where you can find the raw data files for both the mono-static sodar and ceilometer located at the visitor compound:

ftp://ftp1.esrl.noaa.gov/psd3/bao/Ceilo/raw/    (Vaisala binary)

This file describes the data format:
ftp://ftp1.esrl.noaa.gov/psd3/bao/Ceilo/readme_ceilometer_BAO.txt

ftp://ftp1.esrl.noaa.gov/psd3/bao/Tower/Sodar/Raw/     (netcdf)

This file describes the data format:
ftp://ftp1.esrl.noaa.gov/psd3/bao/SODAR/Sodar_Readme.txt

We use MATLAB to read the raw files. We can get you the code if you want.

Profiling lidar

For the profiling lidars, we plan:

- global study (throughout XPIA) comparing the WCv1 lidars to each other and to the WCv2 lidar (after it was deployed 12 March)
- global study (throughout XPIA) comparing the lidars to tower sonics for mean wind speed and direction
- global study (throughout XPIA) comparing the wind fluctuations from the lidars to TKE from the tower sonics
- case study of some interesting LLJs (0-6 UTC) such as 5 March, 16-17 March (odd NEly jet), 4 Apr, 6 Apr (2-6 UTC), 6-7 Apr (22-4 UTC), 10 Apr (0-6 UTC), 12 Apr (0-12 UTC), 14 Apr (0-8 UTC, very strong),  23 Apr (0-8 UTC, very strong, sswly), 24 Apr (0-6 UTC, pulsing LLJ, NWly)
