GOES-13 (currently GOES-East) has experienced an anamoly and is currently
not sending imagery. It appears that NESDIS is sending GOES-West scans
through GOES-East.
SSEC has switched to use of GOES-14 for the GOES-East sectors sent in
the Unidata-Wisconsin datastream (LDM/IDD feedtype UNIWISC aka MCIDAS).
Sites using Unidata-supplied/derived LDM pattern-action file actions
(e.g., GEMPAK and McIDAS users) will be processing the GOES-14 derived
image sectors in a GOES-14 directory hierarchy. This switch will require
users to adapt their application setup to recognize and use the previously
non-existent GOES-14 branch.
We are monitoring the situation with GOES-13 and will update users as
appropriate.
Cheers,
Tom
