There are 181 files with each having one stations data for the entire time period in ASCII format(approximately 1 MB) with the filename being the station ID. All stations files have been tarred into a single file for storage(approximately 160MB). There is also a reduced subset of this data available spanning the years from 1960-2000 available, 1 tarred file (containing 181 files) approximately 67 MB.Lineage
