Subject:  Discontinue the Experimental NDFD WFS:  Effective
          March 1, 2011

Effective March 1, 2011, at approximately 1500 Coordinated
Universal Time (UTC), the NWS will discontinue the experimental
Web Feature Service for National Digital Forecast Database
(NDFD).  The service received very few requests for data and did
not develop a set of consistent users. The NWS is pursuing other
similar services and will make them available for experimental
use and comment and review when complete.

If you have any questions regarding discontinuance of this
service, please contact:

Robert Bunge                            Carl McCalla
