Purpose: To provide a data set of weather stations and general climate data located within the Platte River Basin Planning area. Supplemental_Information: The dataset's original extent, coordinate system, and data attributes have been altered. The dataset has been clipped to the extents of the North and South Platte 4th level hydrologic unit code watershed boundaries. The coordinate system has been changed to Lat/Long NAD 1927, and various data attributes have been excluded. These data alterations occurred in the Spring of 2003 for use in the Wyoming Water Development Commission's Platte River Basin Plan.
