On 12/16/02 we saw a large increase in the size and number of products
on the DDS data stream. It seems that the NWS is now sending a lot of
products that are similar to the following:

It looks like the header is SRxxnn KWAL where xx is a state
abbreviation. The product itself is in some encoded format.
Does anyone know what this data is and where it came from?
A probably different issue is what looks like a corruption of the
surface observations (mostly SPECI) where a "^C\xec^T=^M^M" is dropped
into the middle of what looks like a dump of several hours of data from
the ASOS.

Is this something that we should plan on filtering out or will there be
a fix?
Thanks.
