Chirstopher,

I hope you're aware that the wind direction in the DOE-2 files are from 0 to 16, while 
those in the standard weather reports and *.wy3 and *.epw formats are in degrees 0-360.

>                     The bane of weather data over the past three decades has been the
>                     solar radiation (global horizontal and direct normal) which are not
>                     measured parameters, but derived using various solar and sky models.
>                     All the familiar "typical year" sets, i.e., TMY, WYEC, IWEC, etc.,
>                     let alone the historical weather files, have modeled solar
>                     radiation. Although a lot of
>                     work has gone into such models (see M. Iqbal,"An Introduction to

>                     intractible problem of the lack of good measured solar to tune any
>                     of these models. For example, in the ASHRAE IWEC2 weather files, my
>                     team was able to find one or two years' measured data for less than
>                     50 locations,
>                     from which were derived 28 sets of regression coefficients then used

>                     For the past decade and a half, researchers around the world have
>                     been working to derive solar radiation from weather satellite

>                     solar power industry, but the downside has been to be totally priced
>                     out, since the commercial cost for one year's solar data for one
>                     location (grid cell) typically runs around $1,000.

>                     A welcome development over the last five years is that various
>                     government offices or affiliated consortia are now beginning to also
>                     providing access to satellite-derived solar radiation at minimal or
>                     more acceptable costs under various conditions. Over the past three
>                     years, WBT has obtained access to such data and permission for its
>                     use in WBT weather files.
>                     WBT is now either replacing the solar radiation on its historical
>                     weather files, or using satellite-derived radiation to develop
>                     custom solar coefficients for each location to extend the
>                     satellite-derived solar to time periods outside the available time
>                     window. With the exception of polar locations above or below 60/66

>                     Starting in 2018, WBT historical weather files in the following

>                     Another benefit to the satellite-derived solar is to increases the
