Bad Data
« on: August 07, 2010, 12:37:44 PM »
I was looking at some cwop data for stations listed close to me and one looks like it's in the eye of the storm at 916mb.  I looked at the 10-day graph and it looks like a bad barometer:



I am thinking about sending him an email to alert him about this.  Do you think he'd appreciate it or am I being a busybody?

I would probably let this station know of the deviation. I definitely would want to know if my data was
shaky at best.  Surely don't want to pollute the system with bad data.
