Dear wind product user,
Today, 26 March 2014, at 12.15 UTC an anomaly on the EPS dissemination system resulted in a loss of data from Metop-A and Metop-B, from sensing time 10.02 UTC onwards. Hence the ASCAT wind products are unavailable. Recovery actions are ongoing to resume the service as soon as possible. The root cause of the anomaly is under investigation by EUMETSAT.
Best regards,
Anton Verhoef
