GOES-13 Sounder Band 5 Infrared (13.4 \u00b5m) images, 0847 and 0947 UTC on 20 November [click to enlarge]<\/p><\/div>On 20 November, at 0922 UTC, the GOES-13 Sounder<\/a> experienced an anomaly (the GOES-13 Sounder had Filter Wheel anomalies in 2012 as well: Link<\/a>; Link<\/a>). GOES Engineers determined that the Filter Wheel had stopped moving (the filter wheel aligns the infrared detectors with the incoming data) so data were not scanned. The image above shows the 13.4 \u00b5m (a CO2 channel) image before and after the anomaly. All 18 infrared channels are affected; the visible channel (band 19) continues sending usable data. GOES Engineers continue to investigate the problem. GOES Sounder derived products (such as Total Precipitable Water<\/a>) are affected, and are no longer being produced or disseminated (Link<\/a>).

*Update #2: * **Effective immediately; all the GOES-13 (GOES-East)
\nsounding products are ceased to produce and stop distribution as we are
\nexperiencing an anomaly with the sounder instrument. Engineers are
\ninvestigating the problem. We will inform you when we resume our normal
\noperations.<\/p>\n

GOES-14 is scheduled to broadcast 1-minute SRSO-R data starting 1 February<\/a>. GOES-14 will be activated on 25 January, with a maneuver shortly thereafter. It is likely that GOES-14 Sounder data will be broadcast from 1-25 February (GOES-14 Sounder Timing will be adjusted to match GOES-13 Sounder Timing) when the GOES-14 Imager is broadcasting SRSO-R data.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
