Lake effect snow will continue into the weekend as two more quick moving systems will bring widespread snow to the Upper Great Lakes. High winds are expected across portions of Montana through the weekend. Below normal temperatures will remain in place across much of the southern and eastern U.S., while the western U.S. will experience above normal temperatures. Read More >

2023 NWWS Satellite Change The SBN/NOAAPORT Satellite will change from Galaxy-28 at 89DegW (generally over Western Tennessee) to Galaxy-31 at 121DegW (generally over California) by April 30, 2023. |
Effective 2022/06/30 Topic: Notification of Upcoming Orbit Location Maneuvers of GOES-17 and GOES-18 Details/Specifics of Change: NOAA will be repositioning GOES-17 and GOES-18 with synchronized burns to maintain a longitude separation of 0.3 degrees for RFI avoidance during drift and while on-station. These are both slow rate location “nudges”, as opposed to nominal drifts which are faster and cause a disruption to data availability. Start burns will be executed July 5th and both will utilize natural drift to stop at their new stations. GOES-17 nudge start at 137.2W on July 5th at 15:57 UTC There are no anticipated L-band downlink impacts for GOES-17 GRB, HRIT/EMWIN and DCS users regarding the 0.1 degree westward longitudinal drift. Antennas smaller than 7m should not need to repoint. Antennas larger than 7m should repoint.Users are reminded to peak their antennas after the nudge periods end in order to achieve the best optimal signal.
