WARNING: These raw data have not been subjected to the National Ocean Services
(NOS) Quality Control procedures, and do not necessarily meet the criteria and
standards of official NOS data. They are released for limited public use with
appropriate caution.

WARNING:
* Queries for data MUST include stationID= and time>=.
* Queries USUALLY include time<= (the default end time corresponds to 'now').
* Queries MUST be for less than 30 days worth of data.
* The data source isn't completely reliable. If your request returns no data
when you think it should:
* Try revising the request (e.g., a different time range).
* The list of stations offering this data may be incorrect.
* Sometimes a station or the entire data service is unavailable.
Wait a while and try again.
