Date/Time of Expected End: TBD

Length of Outage: TBD

Details/Specifics of Change:

The Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) will designate Himawari-9 as the operational satellite on December 13, 2022 replacing Himawari-8, which will transition into stand-by mode. Himawari-9 imagery is currently available in PDA I&T and is expected to be available on the NESDIS Common Cloud Framework (NCCF) at 1700 UTC on December 12, 2022.

However, due to the delayed delivery of Cloud Containerized Algorithms Packages (CCAPs), the NCCF operations will experience an extended pause in production of the Himawari Clouds, Winds, SST and Rain Rate products starting at 0500 UTC on December 13, 2022. These Level 2 products will be made operationally available on the NCCF sometime in the future (estimated timeframe for availability is between April and June of 2023).

The table below lists the impacted product filenames. Future notifications will give updates on more specific dates.
