Hi Gerry,

I'm sorry I'm so late in responding to this request.  I wondered if you
received any information regarding this issue?

If not, you might want to contact Marty Deiseroth, ASOS Program, at the NWS,
(301) 713-2093x102, email address@hidden to see if he can assist
you.  I believe the ASOS data are provided every 15 minutes normall and evedry
5 minutes in warning mode.  You might want to check the following NWS Web
information:

http://www.nws.noaa.gov/modernize/asostech.html

I think the National Climatic Data Center makes one-minute data available.

Also, for the area you describe, there is an Oklahoma Mesonetwork that would
provide frequent surface updates.  Contact Ken Crawford at:  405 325-2541  or
address@hidden

Again, I'm sorry for my delayed response.

Linda
