OK

We are not an archive center, we provide real time data to US universities and 
research institutions.

The motherlode "short term archive" is to allow Unidata community members the 
ability to grab data that they may have missed or failed to collect due to some 
failure somewhere :)


I would visit NCDC to obtain this data, please see:

http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/documentlibrary/surface-doc.html

That ~may be a good place to start. Good luck with your research!
