Details

Originally it was believed this data source would be removed by the National Hurricane Center but it appears to have been updated. Additional columns have been added, one up front and three in the back. These columns all contain the same values each and I am unable to find documentation describing the values.

Regardless, the data is kept, just in case.

Warnings

Calling al_prblty_stations will generate a warning:

> "Expected 7 pieces. Additional pieces discarded in 1 rows [90]."

Station PATRICK AFB actually has eight columns. The data is kept for consistency; you decide if you want it or not.
