atm.geo.nsf.gov is now up and running a Unidata 4-port NOAAPORT receive
system.  This change occurred this past Wednesday/Thrusday in preparation
for the power outage at NCAR.  You can use 'atm' as a failover (not
primary) site in, as you say, an emergency.

Now that the NOAAPORT receive system is up and running at NSF/ATM, we will
be revamping the IDD topology in the coming few weeks to do better
load balancing.   Stay tuned for details.
