[EnergyPlus_Support] Re: Weather Data for EnergyPlus

["Yehya Al-Hadban" <y_hadban@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Dru,

I have weather data for Kuwait. One file I downloaded from a DOE 
site. More weather data for Kuwait I have from Kuwait Institute for 
Scientific Research (KISR). How would you like me to send you the 
files so the data can be arranged in a format that is acceptable to 
energy plus. Can you please advice me.

Many thanks,
Yehya
