Howdy and Merry Christmas.
Our server in Florida is not heavily taxed at the moment in terms of
resources or bandwidth, and we'd be happy to grant some backup ALLOW entries
for anyone who depends on or would like the WMO or IDS|DDPLUS services.
Likewise, I'd be more than happy to add similar entries for anyone just
getting their LDM server(s) up and running.
You can trace to the server in question to see if it would be any good for
you: 206.51.238.220 (located inside AS 29802). The canonical name is
ldm1-fl1.wxdata.us.
We'd be thrilled to help the community stay connected. Merry Christmas!

Thanks, Blair, and Merry Christmas to you and yours! We should be out of
our emergency situation around midnight CT (6Z) as we continue to warm. We
had 4,000 people without power earlier today,but ice chunks are still
melting and falling onto power lines, so I am not comfortable giving an
all clear yet, even though power hasn't flickered since about 3 AM last
night, and we haven't lost power at NIU. We still have 3,500 folks in our
county without power, I don't know how many of those are here in town.
