dataset_eml_abstractheader

    Five Remote Automated Weather Stations (RAWS) are operated by Vermont Dept. of Forests, Parks and Recreation to predict fire danger.Three historical stations data records are also available. Continuous monitoring of meteorological variables to use in conjunction with other FEMC weather stations give improved spatial coverage of weather conditions around Vermont.
