Hi Mike and Paul,

I looked at the NOTHER volume plot from one of our NOAAPort ingesters
in the early morning, and didn't see any indication that there was more
data coming in.  While I was in Ryan's office talking about whether or
not his ldm-alchemy code would do the right thing when the data started
coming in, we saw that it had started a bit after 9 am.

Yea, but I was still hopeful.  I'm just naive I guess :-(

I have been assured that the black pixel problem (caused by reflectances
greater than 100%) will be fixed by the time that GOES-16 transitions to
being GOES-East.

re:

No worries.

Now, I'm back on finishing my ADDE server for NOAAPort-delivered ABI imagery...

Cheers,

Tom
