[THREDDS #MWK-292118]: THREDDS Data Download Issue

Greetings!

There was a hiccup in the generation of these composites when the NWS switched 
to the new "Super Resolution" N0B products instead of N0Q. It appears they have 
been working again since last Friday afternoon.

For future reference, in the event of challenges with the radar composites you 
may also want to consider looking at the MRMS radar composites:

Cheers!
