Lightning Network Upgrade

Completed - The scheduled maintenance has been completed.
Jul 22, 13:00 CDT

In progress - Scheduled maintenance is currently in progress. We will provide updates as necessary.
Jul 22, 11:00 CDT

Scheduled - The Vaisala Xweather Lightning Network is being upgraded during this maintenance window. This only affects customers connected to our v2 system via API, Maps, MapsGL, Webhooks, and select file deliveries and direct feeds.

Update includes:
- Improving classification between cloud to ground and cloud to cloud events in specific circumstances

While no significant issues or outages are expected, the Xweather Lightning Network may have very minor data delays in processing data.

Vaisala Xweather Maps Platform Update

Completed - The scheduled maintenance has been completed.
Jul 21, 14:00 CDT

In progress - Scheduled maintenance is currently in progress. We will provide updates as necessary.
Jul 21, 10:00 CDT

Scheduled - During this window, you may experience brief, intermittent interruptions to Raster Maps service. We expect any impact to be minor and short-lived, with no action required on your part. This brief potential interruption will not take place during the entire window, but may happen at some point during the window.

Update includes:
MOD - update observed and forecast layers to ensure parity with MapsGL.
FIX - minor bug fixes & improvements

GOES-East (GOES-19) Satellite Outage Affecting Satellite Imagery

Resolved - This incident has been resolved.
Jul 16, 18:14 CDT

Monitoring - GOES-East (GOES-19) recovery operations are continuing, and satellite data is once again being received.

The affected Raster Maps layers are updating normally.

We will continue to monitor the recovery process and provide additional updates as needed.
Jul 16, 15:21 CDT

Update - NOAA continues to work to restore operations of the GOES East (19) satellite. The latest update from NOAA:

The GOES-19 Safehold has been resolved and engineers are working to prepare for restart of the onboard instruments. More information on the recovery timeline will be provided when known.

The following Xweather Raster Maps layers may be impacted for the GOES-East coverage region:

* GeoColor Satellite
* Infrared Satellite
* Visible Satellite
* Water Vapor Satellite
* Global Estimated Radar

We are actively monitoring the situation and will provide updates as NOAA/NESDIS releases additional information.
Jul 16, 11:18 CDT

Update - NOAA/NESDIS continues to work towards restoring operations. The latest update:

—-
...GOES-19/GOES-EAST OUTAGE...
NESDIS engineers are continuing efforts to recover GOES-19. All
GOES-19/GOES-East products are currently unavailable. There is
currently no estimated restoration time.
—-

The following Xweather Raster Maps layers may be impacted for the GOES-East coverage region:

* GeoColor Satellite
* Infrared Satellite
* Water Vapor Satellite
* Global Estimated Radar

We are actively monitoring the situation and will provide updates as NOAA/NESDIS releases additional information.
Jul 16, 05:12 CDT

Identified - We are aware of an ongoing outage affecting the NOAA GOES-East (GOES-19) satellite. NOAA/NESDIS has issued the following notice:

As of July 15, 5:00 p.m. EDT, GOES-East (GOES-19) is experiencing an anomaly, is not transmitting data, and restoration of service is TBD. Until service is restored, GOES-East images will not update. The GOES team is monitoring the situation and will provide updates as additional information becomes available.

The following Xweather Raster Maps layers may be impacted for the GOES-East coverage region:

* GeoColor Satellite
* Infrared Satellite
* Water Vapor Satellite
* Global Estimated Radar

Our systems are operating normally, but are dependent on the upstream GOES-East data feed. We are actively monitoring the situation and will provide updates as NOAA/NESDIS releases additional information.
