Notes - MADIS Hydrologic Surface Variables

The station location generally contains a geographic description of the station's location, like city and state.

Notes - MADIS Snow Variables

Snow report remarks:

       Value      Meaning
       -----      -------
         0        none
         1        Snow amount based on estimate
         2        Snowfall melted during the OBS period
         3        Snow melted as it landed

Some (but not all) mesonets contain data from a number of smaller networks. In these cases, the "subprovider" for each station is the name of the smaller network. If this variable is all blank, then there isn't a subprovider associated with the station.
