16JUN2010 Changes to the COAMPS Europe domain.
The COAMPS EUROPE and regional WW3_BLACK_SEA and WW3_EUROPE areas will be changing to meet operational needs. The new geometry configuration in operations will take place on 16 June 2010 for the 12Z forecast cycle. This new europe geometry is an expansion of the current configuration meant to extend this domain over the Black and Baltic Seas. This new forecast will replace the current COAMPS EUROPE area as well as the BLKSEA project which will stop running at the time of the switch.
The old and new application geometries for COAMPS_EUROPE and WW3_EUROPE are as follows:
OLD area:
29 to 59N
-15 to 40E
NEW area:
29 to 66N
-15 to 45E
File name changes for the above mod:
old convention: US058GMET-GR1mdl.0022_0158_07200F0NL2010061600_0100_007000-000000wnd_ucmp

==> The 158 ID was changed to 179.
16JUN2010 Data outages from FNMOC run rampant
Due to CAGIPS issues at FNMOC, there was a lot of model data missing from last night. Efforts (painful) are underway to recoup the missing fields.
15JUN2010 JASON-1 back on-line.
All, NASA/JPL has corrected the attitude pointing problems with Jason-1 and the data quality has returned to nominal levels. Jason-1 Wind/wave product generation and distribution resumed today, Monday, 14 June 2010 @ 1300 GMT. Jason-1 SSHA distribution will resume tomorrow, Tuesday, 15 June 2010. If you detect any anomalies, please let us know.

This morning, Wed., 09 June 2010, the ADFC inadvertently delivered the Jason-1 SSHA product, j1ni2010_160.Z. Please disregard that data file.
08JUN2010 JASON-1 outage.
Jason-1 is experiencing significant satellite attitude issues, which is resulting in a major reduction in the quality and quantity of the data. As a precaution to our customers, we have temporarily discontinued Jason-1 product generation and distribution.
Data providers, NASA/JPL and CNES, are working to resolve the anomaly and when the data quality improves we'll resume Jason-1 production/distribution.

12JAN2010 A technical issue resulted in a disruption of data
The automated recovery jobs failed, and have resulted in delays of data distribution. A recovery of data is in progress. There is the possibility of missing FNMOC gridded data for date time groups near the January 12, 2010 date. In addition the data feed rate from FNMOC has slowed significantly which may result in more delays.
08DEC2009 Recovered NOGAPS data for 2009111900
