Hmm.  I would not have expected that the HDS feed would be impacted by
the RUC2 -> RAP transition that occurred today.  I could be wrong, however.

Question:

- is this the first time that you have noticed data gaps like this?

Perhaps.  I will send a note back to a contact in NOAA to see if they
can shed some light on this.

I understand.

I will let you know what our NOAA contact has to say about this...

Cheers,

Tom
