Hello all,
I noticed that my radar mosaics were "blinking on and off" with various radar
sites going down, and on one frame, they all went out around 15:30Z. Anyone
notice any data anomalies? When the frame went out, I checked my receiver and
I had a strong signal...
Oh, something is happening, all right. Look at my receiver stats for this
today:

Now look at UNIDATA's...

Something is going on, and at least the NEXRAD feed is affected.
And now, at 22:20Z and thereafter, I am seeing a LOT of missing NEXRAD
products again.
22:40Z: I just called NCF at the NWS. They said this was the first they
had heard of it.
22:58Z: They found the problem as it was occurring when I called, and
fixed it. Everything should now fine now.
3:30Z: Didn't get a chance to send this earlier. Sorry.
