We do not support conversion of excel files into ARL format.
You can either use the stn2arl utility described in the tutorial

https://www.ready.noaa.gov/documents/Tu ... enter.html

or you can write your own conversion utility. You can find more information about
the format of the meteorological files in the following link.
