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.
