Over the past year or so, all Federally-owned AWOS/AWSS (206 total)
have been in the process of being upgraded.  Basically, once upgraded,
they report just like an ASOS with all the additive climate data and
things like SLP, present wx, and PK WND.

Attached is a list I got from the FAA in January.  Since that time, 30
more sites have been upgraded.  They are:

KAWO  KCVN  KEAR  KEHR  KENV  KFCI  KGAI  KHEF  KLBL  KLKV
KMYR  KOCF  KOLU  KOTH  KPIB  KPRX  KPWT  KSGU  KYKN  PAFE
PAIN  PAKP  PAMD  PAMM  PASD  PASH  PASX  PAWG  PAWS  PAZK

Of all the sites that has been upgraded, only one does not have NADIN
service for its METARs (KGVQ).
