Hi, Team PAGASA!
Thank you for the feedback!
I was hoping I was clear in the email I sent.
But to reiterate, initially, I am requesting a monthly amount of rainfall between 2018 to 2021. But then I follow up with an email requesting additional YEAR data since my request has not yet been successful.
Now, we are optimistic to receive a monthly amount of rainfall between 2010 to 2021 as a reason we expanded our time series for much observation data.
I have also submitted my revised CAD - 06 with my signature and CAD - 07 for your reference.
We hope we could get an update as soon as possible because my professor had set a deadline this January 26, 2023, to run tests on our variables.
I appreciate your patience and understanding!
Warm regards,
Ashley Merca
