Hello,

We do currently have the Metop-C Soundings available in AWIPS - however we 
don't currently have a way to differentiate between NOAA-20 and Metop-C NUCAPS 
soundings in AWIPS-II (as stated in the blog). If you look at the 14:35 time 
step of NUCAPS Soundings you will see both swaths available. As mentioned in 
the blog you can use this website: 
https://www.ssec.wisc.edu/datacenter/polar_orbit_tracks/ to match the swath to 
the correct satellite. We also have some of the gridded products available as 
well (but again don't differentiate between satellites).



Thanks,
