NWS Data Management and/or Greg Legg?,

The bufr format QuikSCAT products being broadcast on NOAAPORT (eg the
ISXX01 KNES through ISXX09 KNES products) have been showing WMO header
times up to 5 hours in the future. For example, at 18:55:55 UTC, AUG 24,
2007 the SBN sequence number 177577808 product was broadcast with WMO
header:

ISXX07 KNES 250116 

The actual data within this product contains a time of 17:53:48 +/- a
few seconds.

Are you aware of this and/or is there a reason that this is occuring?

Thank you for any information you can provide,
