I assume we don't need its function specially for that format.  It has a YEARMODA2Date function.\r\n\r\nWe may well make use of the chillR package for other functions, with patch_daily_temperatures looking interesting for our Riga and other work.\r\n\r\nIt says: \r\n\"This function uses auxiliary data sources to fill gaps in daily weather data. It can accommodate\r\nmultiple sources of auxiliary information, which are used in the user-specified sequence. There\r\nhave to be some overlapping records for this to work, because without bias correction, this procedure\r\ncould produce erroneous records. Bias correction is done by computing the mean difference\r\nbetween main and auxiliary data for each variable and adjusting for it in filling the gaps. You can\r\nspecify a maximum mean bias and a maximum standard deviation of the bias to exclude unsuitable\r\nrecords that aren’t similar enough to the original data.\"\r\n\r\nThat looks like quite a good gift - if it works well?\r\n"}}
