TSUBJECT:          Changes to the NWS Production Suite



    The holiday moratorium on changes to the NCEP Production
Suite will begin Tuesday, 16 December and end the week of 5
January.  All requests for changes to the Production Suite are to
be made prior to the moratorium and should be submitted no later
than 4 December.  In addition, there will be no major
implementations the week of 23 November.  As always, crisis
changes will be made throughout the moratorium to resolve
operational code failures.

    On Tuesday, 18 November 2003, NCEP will cease the production
of the DRF look alike products.  These products are currently
only available on the NCEP CCS under the following directory:

    /com/mrf/prod/mrf.{YYYYMMDD}/

and these are named with the prefix, drf01.*.  Alternate data are
currently being produced and stored on the NCEP CCS under the
directory:

/com/mrf/prod/ens.{YYYYMMDD}/  with the file name, gblav.*.2.

    During the next two months additional NCEP model output will
become available on the TOC FTP server.  The tentative schedule
for these additional data are:

    25 November - GFS BUFR sounding files
    2 December - Extension of the 06Z & 18Z Eta model output to
84 hours
    2 December - Additional ensemble products
    9 December - Extension of the 00Z, 06Z, & 18Z GFS 2.5 degree
data to 180 hours
