You can download http://205.156.54.206/pub/stninfo/nsd_bbsss.txt from NWS.
This contains all but 4 of the "invalid" stations listed. NWS has been
trying to update the list about monthly. Maybe the others will evenyually
show up if you check back in a month or two. If I remember the format
correctly, if there are two lat/lon pairs, the second pair is the upper air
obs location and if there are two elevations, the second one is the upper
air obs base elevation. I believe documentation about the format is at
..../stninfo.

Dear LDM Users -
We have just recently started running the LDM here at COLA,
after an 8-year hiatus. Brian Doty is working on a decoder
to get the upperair data into GrADS station data format.
Unfortunately, the table of station IDs and locations in the
decoders distribution (deocders/src/upperair/snworld.tbl)
doesn't seem to be complete. The following station ids are
not in that file: 

  invalid stid = 91212 
  invalid stid = 71908 
  invalid stid = 48650 
  invalid stid = 48855 
  invalid stid = 47090 
  invalid stid = 47102 
  invalid stid = 94866 
  invalid stid = 92044 
  invalid stid = 30715 
  invalid stid = 92044 
  invalid stid = 30715 
  invalid stid = 22522 
  invalid stid = 41112 
  invalid stid = 32098 
  invalid stid = 62403 
  invalid stid = 62403 
  invalid stid = 48855 
  invalid stid = 62423 
  invalid stid = 62423 
  invalid stid = 83554 

Does anyone have information (name, lat, lon, elevation) for
these station IDs? 

Thanks!

Jennifer
