There are six folders for the six stations and each folder contains individual trajectory files for every summer rainfall event between 1979 and 2013. The first 27 lines of each file list the initialized conditions. From line 28 onward, variables such as latitude, longitude, pressure, specific humidity, and height (above ground level) of the air parcel at hourly timesteps are listed.
