    Climate data collected at USDA Jornada Experimental Range
    Headquarters which is a NOAA weather station.  Daily data
    has been collected since 1914 for minimum and maximum air
    temperature as well as daily precipitation.  Pan evaporation
    data was collection from January 1956 through August 1979.
