The obstruction was cleared. - Exact date/time the obstruction was introduced is not known. Care should be taken when using the precipitation data from this station for the months of June, 2002 and July, 2002. The total amount of precipitation (storm total) should be fairly accurate, but there will be an obvious lag in report times, especially with the five-minute data, prior to when repairs were made today. 04/08/2002: Daylight Savings Time Adjustment. - Daylight Savings Time Started on Day=97, Time=200. - Time of Obs were modified by one hour (forward) from Day=97, Time=200 through Day=97, Time=405. 10/29/2001: Daylight Savings Time Adjustment. - Daylight Savings Time Ended on Day=301, Time=200. - Time of Obs were modified by one hour (subtracted) from Day=301, Time=200 through Day=301, Time=605. 10/30/2000: Daylight Savings Time Adjustment. - Daylight Savings Time Ended on Day=303, Time=200. - Time of Obs were modified by one hour (subtracted) from Day=303, Time=200 through Day=304, Time=950. Only Observation Times were modified, not times of Maxs and Mins. Users will need to take that into consideration when using this data. ??/??/2000: Albion station added to MAWN database 05/12/2000: Phone Line To Station Activated. 05/04/2000: Data Logging Activated (mawn1b) Data Logger Start Time: 00:05, Day=126 (05/05/2000) 05/04/2000: Station Installed.
