Create a weather file from measured data

Hi,

I have measured data(4 years) for 3 outside parameters. Temperature, Relative Humidity and CO2 levels(I think CO2 levels is not present on a *epw file) . I'm using OpenStudio to make my simulations. It's valid to create a weather file, by editing the *.epw file of my city provided by EnergyPlus website, and put 1 year data on the correct field and delete all the rest of *.epw info? Can I create a *.epw file with just this 3 parameters? Thank you
