*'''20 Sep 2021''' The MetOp-A IASI outage for the first test began 2021-09-08 12z. The MetOp-A IASI data returned in the 2021-09-15 06z dataset with a partial swath, according to coverage plots. At 2021-09-16 12z the number of accepted obs dropped to near zero (presumably with the start of the second technology test). The ana.log files had messages about "READ_IASI WARNING uncertainty in lza". It was decided to turn off MetOp-A IASI data starting with the 12z assimilation on this date (9/20/2021) - this will be the end of our usage of MetOp-A IASI since the data is not expected to be available after the end of the technology test. | *'''20 Sep 2021''' The MetOp-A IASI outage for the first test began 2021-09-08 12z.

*'''19 Oct 2021''' The MetOp-A IASI instrument was switched off on October 15. Note that all other Metop-A instruments and products will be shut off by November 15, and the satellite will be de-orbited by December 1. In future tags we will be marking the end date for MetOp-A IASI in the 'active_channels.tbl' and the 'available_channels.tbl' as 9/08/21 06z prior to the first outage. By turning off the data in the 'available_channels.tbl' we will avoid the "READ_IASI WARNING uncertainty in lza" error messages that would appear even when the data is read in as passive. | *'''19 Oct 2021''' The MetOp-A IASI instrument was switched off on October 15.

*'''3 Dec 2021''' The MetOp-A instruments were supposed to have been shut off by November 15 - EUMETSAT discontinued data dissemination on that date. However, some data (e.g AMSU-A, MHS, AVHRR) continued to be distributed by NOAA and at least for AMSU-A there were reports of degradation. The final date with MetOp-A data was 27 Nov 2021, 12Z. | |||
