I get the emailed quality report daily for my station C4114.
The "Speed knts" column has crazy errors showing in bold, in the thousands of units.
Here is a small sample from today:
Date UTC Alt (mb) Temp °F DewPt °F Wind Dir Speed knts
10-SEP-2019 0150 1024.6 -0.69 54 +2.74 48 -0.17 360 +65 0.9 +3258.9
10-SEP-2019 0155 1024.5 -0.59 54 +2.74 48 -0.17 0 +43 0.0 +4458.2
10-SEP-2019 0240 1023.8 -0.52 54 +2.94 49 -0.88 360 +66 0.9 +1936.8
My data on MesoWest (https://mesowest.utah.edu/cgi-bin/droman/meso_base.cgi?stn=C4114&time=GMT) looks good with all "OK".
Anyone else seeing this and/or know what is going on? I don't think that my wind speed errors are in the Mach range... :shock:

Same here on DW9356. I am failing 49/49 in the "Wind Dir" and the "Speed Knts" columns.

Me too. This is the second day I got such an email (FW4751):

I should add that the 3-day Madis report shows this for wind (FW4751):
https://weather.gladstonefamily.net/site/search?site=F4751;Get%20information=Get%20information;days=3#Data
MADIS
rating MADIS rating 73% QC OK
Sensor fails following checks:
L3 Spatial Consistency (with this link describing that check: https://madis.noaa.gov/madis_sfc_qc.shtml).

I sent an email to MADIS support regarding this issue.

Thank you!

I chatted with Philip Gladstone. Here is what he had to say.
It is unclear what is going on. MADIS is certainly generating crazy wind analysis numbers.... I'm think that I'm just going to disable it (the wind speed) until further notice. However it also is missing other data (not consistently)...
-
Thanks for the update from Philip as it continues to be a problem for me.
-
I don't check CWOP every day, but I was startled yesterday when I did.
Got a big, "Thumbs Down" on my wind reporting, though all my numbers looked fine to me. I noticed that the red "analysis" line was incomplete.
I will stop worrying about it, it's "them not us".

Did you hear back from MADIS? I had been troubleshooting this robustly until I came across this posting...

No, I never did. I checked my emails and see that the 06-OCT-2019 report has a blank in the "Speed knts" column. The prior one from 16-SEP-2019 still had the error.

Just reviving this post to see if anyone has figured out what's going on with the wind QC...I still see crazy wind velocities posted for my station. Thx!

I also emailed the MADIS folks and got no reply either.
