This seems to occur quite frequently during widespread snow and ice storms - is
it possible in this case that wet snow was accumulating on SBN dishes at WFOs
resulting in missed packets and retransmits being requested? Seemed like the
same situation occurred during the winter storm in the Plains a few weeks ago.
Just a thought for consideration.

Subject: [ldm-users] NOAAPort Rexmits - - Redux
As G (Gilberg Sebenste) pointed out earlier, we have been assailed by NOAAPort
Retransmits again [:-(]
Here I have provided a chart highlighting the current barrage, which as
indicated began somewhere around 18:19Z today.

We never heard back about who, or what may have been the cause the last few
times, but it seemed prudent to ensure that all appropriate personnel were
notified [8-)]
Perhaps aliens are watching Netflix through the Dish again? [*ALIEN*]
