Topic: Himawari-9 outage

 

Date/Time Issued: February 27, 2025 03507Z

 

Product or Data Impacted: Himawari-9 Imagery and Derived Products

Date/Time of Initial Impact: February 27, 2025 0025Z

 

Date/Time of Expected End: TBD

 

Length of the Outage/Event: TBD

 

Details/Specifics:  Starting at around 0025Z, the Himawari Cloud data feed to NCCF and PDA became severely degraded. We are only receiving about 15% of normal data. This is not enough

to generate any imagery or to use for any derived data. The issue is being investigated. Until it is resolved, we have no Himawari imagery or Derived Products (Rain Rate, Cloud, Winds).

This will also affect McIDAS distribution of Himawari data (HIM/ group). Blended products using this data (Global HydroEstimator, Global Mosaic, Arctic Composite) will

be degraded.
