List of Scientific Changes:

Add G16/G19 and N21 to the blended TPW
Remove N19 from blended TPW
Add N21 to the blended RR
Remove N19 and DMSP-F17/F18 from blended RR
Add advected POES into blended TPW, with a new blending approach preferred by forecasters in testbed evaluations.
'Satellite_Number' variable in the blended TPW has been changed to only include:

a)POLAR means the data is advected Microwave TPW; (value = 50)

b)GPS_EXTRAP means it is extrapolated GPS (used over land only); (value = 251)

c)GOES-E and GOES-W are where GOES TPW was used in the final product; (values 100 for East and 150 for West)

bTPW and bRR image archive files will not be generated(Stop to be archived at NCEI)
Blended Hydro McIDAS area file will not be generated.
