This dataset contains monthly average temperature,
precipitation, and Palmer Drought Indices for each climatic
division in the 48 contiguous U.S. states, as well as Puerto
Rico and the Virgin Islands. The period of record is January
1895 to April 1993. Monthly averages within a climatic division
have been calculated by giving equal weight to stations
reporting both temperature and precipitation.
