Hello, and thanks for reaching out.

The base URL for that data has changed. It can be found at 
https://thredds.ucar.edu/thredds/catalog/satellite/goes/east/products/CloudAndMoistureImagery/catalog.html,
 so your new date string might look like

  'https://thredds.ucar.edu/thredds/catalog/satellite/goes/east/products/'
  
f'CloudAndMoistureImagery/{region}/Channel{channel:02d}/{date:%Y%m%d}/catalog.xml'

Note that these early MetPy Mondays are years old and very out-of-date now, so 
we can't support them as they were presented. In this example, the remainder of 
your notebook won't run due to changes in the way we process projection 
information. For (mostly) up-to-date examples that mirror MetPy Mondays, please 
check out our Python Training collection of notebooks. Here is the one of 
particular interest for this example: 
https://github.com/Unidata/python-training/blob/master/pages/workshop/Satellite_Data/GOES%20Interactive%20Plot.ipynb.
 Note that some of those materials are also currently outdated as presented on 
the web, though we are working to fix that this Summer. Thanks, and I hope this 
helps!


All the best,

Drew
