An update will be provided as new information becomes available.Ĭlick here to listen to the audio from the media call. The latest SHIPS-RI probabilities continue to highlight the high likelihood of this scenario, with a 73 percent chance of a 35-kt wind speed increase in 24 h and a 79 percent chance of a 45-kt increase in 36 h. Auto checks for newest NOAA NEXRAD radar data every 2 1/2 minutes for the data that is updated. Pinpoint location forecasts for land and marine forecasts. If efforts to restore the cooling system are unsuccessful, alternative concepts and modes will be considered to maximize the operational utility of the ABI for NOAA's National Weather Service and other customers. WeatherRadarUSA Feature List: - Animated weather radar and weather forecast for any location in the USA 50 states and Puerto Rico that NOAA happens to cover.

NOAA’s operational geostationary constellation - GOES-16, operating as GOES-East, GOES-15, operating as GOES-West and GOES-14, operating as the on-orbit spare - is healthy and monitoring weather across the nation each day, so there is no immediate impact from this performance issue. The visible channels of the ABI are not impacted. The issue affects the infrared and near-infrared channels on the instrument. The cooling system is an integral part of the ABI and did not start up properly during the on-orbit checkout.Ī team of experts from NOAA, NASA, the ABI contractor team and industry are investigating the issue and pursuing multiple courses of possible corrective actions. The GOES-R Program is currently addressing a performance issue with the cooling system encountered during commissioning of the GOES-17 Advanced Baseline Imager (ABI) instrument.
