Good morning,
I am new to the IDD and not really experienced in the atmospheric sciences. I 
am looking for help obtaining surface weather reports (metar) in the United 
States from LDM. I followed guidelines in WMO header tables to request reports 
from United States with the following statement:
IDS|DDPLUS ^SAUS.. (....) (..)(..)
FILE
IDS_DDPLUS/\1/(\2:yyyy)(\2:mm)(\2:dd)T\3.txt
According to table descriptions the first field after the type of the report is 
the cccc station identifier and I believe this is the ICAO ID for reporting 
stations. However, I have not been able to get reports for specific stations 
using this ID and if I use the statement as above I always get 60 folders only.
Would anyone help with a better statement to get these hourly reports for 
specific stations? Is this possible at all?
Thank you very much in advance for your help.
P       Please consider the environment before printing this email.
