===================================================================

NOTE: POWER OUTAGE ON 8/10 RESULTED IN MISSING MIN TEMPERATURE AND
WIND DATA OBSERVED ON 8/10, WIND DATA ON 8/11 AND 8/12. MAX/MIN
TEMPERATURES FROM 8/11 AND 8/12 WERE FOUND FROM AUGMENTED OBS FROM
THE FAA.

PEAK WIND ON 8/10 LIKELY OCCURED AFTER POWER OUTAGE AND THE LAST
PEAK WIND/OBSERVED GUST RECORDED WAS 68 MPH.
