Subject: Missing Grids

The following notice has been posted by NCEP ops.  It may bear on, or 
explain, the recent grib data outages:


NOXX10 KWBC 221237
DATA MGT MESSAGE 04-99.2

ATTN ALL USERS OF THE AWIPS/NOAAPORT DATASTREAM

NWS IS MAKING ADJUSTMENTS TO COMMUNICATIONS PATHS BETWEEN THE
NWSTG AND THE AWIPS/NOAAPORT NETWORK CONTROL FACILITY /NCF/.
ULTIMATELY THIS COULD REDUCE SOME DATA DELAYS AT PEAK TRAFFIC
PERIODS.  WHILE THESE ADJUSTMENTS ARE BEING MADE THE DELIVERY
TIME OF SOME PRODUCTS MAY VARY SLIGHTLY.  THE PRODUCTS AFFECTED
ARE THE AVN  MRF  NGM  ETA AND OTHER GRIB ENCODED PRODUCTS.

THESE ADJUSTMENTS SHOULD BE COMPLETE BY THE END OF APRIL.  WE
ARE CLOSELY MONITORING THE CHANGES TO AVOID ANY NEGATIVE IMPACT.

NOTE  THIS MESSAGE WILL BE REPEATED DURING THIS ADJUSTMENT PERIOD.
