That looks very promising.
An enormous thank you for the work you put into this. I'm looking forward to trying it out. I will advise.

>>> stations = [21413, 21414,   21415,   21416,   21417,   21418,   21419,   21420]
 
maximums = []
 
for station in stations:
  for year in range(2010, 2018):
    try:
      filename = f'https://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/view_text_file.php?filename={station}t{year}.txt.gz&dir=data/historical/dart/'
      df = pd.read_csv(filename, sep='\s+',header=None,skiprows=2, names=['height'],usecols=[7]).query('height != 9999.0').max()[0]
      maximums.append(df)
    except:
      print(f'Missing: station {station}, year: {year}')
      continue
SyntaxError: multiple statements found while compiling a single statement

I seem to be getting this syntax error often. I'm using Python 3.6.8. It did this when I tried some code in an exercise and I don't know why.
