Hi Miguel!

I understand better now.

There was data before. I think perhaps the missing data was 1.00 to 6.00, i.e. 
more than 240 minutes.
About road condition and precipitation, how are they handled. They were not 
included in the decription at:
http://documentation.wikia.com/wiki/Input_observation_QA/QC_(METRo)#Time_constraint
Are those assumed to be dry if no values are given?
Thanks one more time!
