That's a good idea; since there are no month labels on the data in the
file (just the numbers), I can just create a month array, and where
month[i] is DEC, JAN, or FEB I could have it grab temp[i] from my data
array. That way I'd get a new array with just the temps from those
three months. I'll give that a try.
