Detail: There is an issue with the latest EUMETCast software package, affecting Linux operating systems when the Tellicast client software (version 2.14.5) is used in combination with the Safenet drivers. A new alpha version of Tellicast, with a fix of the issue, is available for download. See the URL provided below.

Satellites: Metop-A
Subsystem: GOME-2
Subject: general-announcement
Impact: data-degraded
Detail: The Metop-A satellite with GOME-2 on-board is currently in drifting orbit. As a consequence there are periods during which the GOME-2 instrument is not able to carry out its daily solar calibration measurement. The third such period will be from 14 November 2019 to 14 April 2020. During this period, the solar mean reference spectrum provided in the Metop-A GOME-2 level-1B product will be automatically replaced by a modelled solar spectrum using information on solar activity from Metop-B. Therefore, it is expected that the quality of both level-1B and level-2 products might undergo slight changes during this period, and there will be an associated risk of degraded product quality for Metop-A GOME-2 products.

Detail: Drift to a new orbital position. During this period, Metop-C will not be following the reference orbit, with a drifting ground track and phase with respect to Metop-B. Some instrument products may be degraded. A small impact on the number and quality of AVHRR wind products might be observed during this period. [Rev. 2]: End date updated.

Detail: HRPT switching zone drift. Risk of interruption. The Metop-A satellite is currently in drifting orbit. As a consequence the geographical zones, defined to control the switching times of the satelliteM-bM-^@M-^Ys HRPT system, are drifting westwards at a rate of 0.02M-BM-0 per day. Users near the borders of switching zones might experience small changes in their acquisition times of the HRPT signal. On-board timings will be updated approximately every 8 months to compensate for the drift geolocation. A dedicated announcement will be issued in advance of each of these updates.

Detail: IASI Level 2 Patch installation V6.5.9 and System upgrade. Correction of two anomalies detected on the IASI L2 V 6.5 which is operational since the 4th December 2019: - Cloud: cloud top temperature values were sometimes incorrectly supplied although no clouds could actually be retrieved. All cloud parameters are now reset to NaN in the absence of a cloud retrieval. - SO2: Information about missing input IASI data were not copied into the SO2 quality flag, which was also preventing the use of forecast data instead of IASI L2 profiles when those were of degraded quality. The correct processing and flagging have been restored. Please note that an outage of up to 8 hours during working hours might be encountered.
