Topic: GOES-13 (GOES-East) Sounder Patch Temperature Change

Date/Time Issued: September 16, 2013 1246 UTC

Product(s) or Data Impacted: GOES-13 (GOES-East) Sounder data

Date/Time of Initial Impact: September 12, 2013 2035 UTC

Date/Time of Expected End: Please see details.

Length of Outage: N/A

Details/Specifics of Change: On September 12, 2013, SOCC Engineers
changed
the GOES-15 Sounder patch temperature from its LOW set points (82 K)
to its
HIGH set-point (85 K) at about 2035 UTC. The temperature transition
took
approximately 30 minutes during housekeeping.

The patch will be changed to "MID" during the upcoming Yaw Flip (9/23)
outage and then back to "LOW" on October 9th during the 2045 UTC
housekeeping. Approximately two hours of product impact can be expected
during transition from MID to LOW on October 9th, 2013.

GOES-15 patch management is necessary to minimize patch fluctuations
around
each equinox due to the cooler blanket anomaly.
