Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1
Update: #6 GOES-15 (GOES-West) recovery is underway. The problem has
been isolated; however, the estimated return to service will occur no
earlier than 1600 UTC on Friday, March 23, 2012. In addition, a
comprehensive list of products impacts is provided in this
message. Lastly,
we are currently experiencing some challenges that are impacting
our group
e-mail notification distribution. We will return to normal operations
as
soon as possible, and regret any inconvenience this outage may cause.
Update: #5 The GOES West data outage status has not changed. LRIT
TEXT
EMWIN DCS NWS are still red. GOES-15
recovery activities continue and all payloads and services remain
off. The
Engineering are estimating the recovery time to service for GOES-15
West on J/Day 083 at 1200Z. Engineering continues to run recovery
procedures. GOES-13 East is operating in a Full Disk imaging mode while
GOES-15 is out of service.

Topic: GOES-15 West data outage.
Date/Time Issued: March 22, 2012, 1705 UTC
Product(s) or Data Impacted: GOES-15 West Imager and Sounder data and
associated products, ancillary communication services
(DCS/LRIT/EMWIN/SAR)
Date/Time of Initial Impact: March 21, 2012, 2045 UTC
Date/Time of Expected End: March 23, 2012 1600 UTC (estimated)
Length of Outage: TBD
Update: #6 GOES-15 (GOES-West) recovery is underway. The problem has
been isolated; however, the estimated return to service will occur no
earlier than 1600 UTC on Friday, March 23, 2012. Please note:
GOES-13 East
is operating in a Full Disk imaging mode while GOES-15 is out of
service.
Here is a comprehensive list of products impacts.
GOES-15 Imager (Specific Images):
Super National Image (truncated in west)
NO West CONUS Sector Imagery
NO Alaska Regional and National Sector Imagery
NO Hawaii Regional and National Sector Imagery
GOES-15 Sounder Imagery: There is NO sounder data for any GOES-West
regions
(GOES-15 Sounder Products including DPI, ASOS SCP, vertical profiles
and
GOES-15 Derived Products)
LRIT: Out on GOES-West; however, users can re-point their antennas to
GOES-East (GOES-13) if they can "see" the spacecraft. In addition,
depending on vendor for LRIT station, some users can point to MTSAT
(Japanese satellite)
EMWIN: Out on GOES-West
DCS: Out on GOES-West; however, we have switched the feed for GOES
West to
GOES East. Those of users within the footprint of GOES East will most
likely get the data. Those users outside the footprint of GOES
East, or
with an angle that doesn't reach GOES East, will not.
SARSAT: With the INSAT satellite and GOES East we cover most of
the area
under GOES-W. There is a gap in coverage from 150W to 170E about
40 degrees
where there is no GEOSAR detection at this time. This area will
only be
covered by LEO satellites which will likely increase latency of
any alerts
that might occur. New Zealand, Fiji, New Caledonia and several other
smaller islands are in this region.
GINI Products: GOES-West was switched into a "WEST-LOOK-EAST" mode at
2105Z. This means that the West GINI started using GOES-East data for
processing/creating products. There is a gap of data after 2030Z on
3/21/2012 until 2115Z. After that, every half hour using GOES-East
data
starting at 2115Z.

Details/Specifics of Change: ESPC is currently not receiving GOES-15
West
data due to a bad momentum unload. GOES-15 went into a sun
acquisition
mode and is unable to do any imaging. Operations personnel are
trying to
place GOES-13 into a full disk imaging mode.
