CONDUIT data users, The NWS ldm was restarted at 17:57Z which will appear as a gap in the 16Z RUC insertion and following the 84 hour GFS .5 degree forecast time. This change strikes a balance between parallel insertion, and ordered file posting such that the files posted within a model run will maintain the order as the servver was notified of their creation, while allowing the seerate models to be inserted into the LDM in concurrency.
