May 22, 2013 10:15 EDT: Notice:
The GOES-East (GOES-13) is currently out of service. Due to problems encountered, at 6:05 a.m. this morning, a command was initiated to reboot the satellite.
The current estimated time for return to service is Thursday, May 23, 2013 in the evening.
NOAA switched the feed from GOES East to GOES West. Those sites within the footprint of GOES West will get data; those outside the footprint of GOES West, or with an angle that doesn't reach GOES West will not.
NOAA will additionally turn on GOES-14, but not move it. Since it is further East, we should pick up more of the missing stations.
Location.--Latitude 47°35'00", Longitude
120°37'06", in SE 1/4 SW 1/4 Section 8, Township 24
North, Range 18 East, in Chelan County, Hydrologic Unit
17020011, on right bank 1.0 mile northwest of Peshastin, 3.5
miles upstream from Peshastin Creek, 4.1 miles downstream from
Icicle Creek, and at river
mile 21.5. Drainage
area is 1,000 mi2. Datum
of gage is 1,028.04 feet above NGVD of 1929.
The
15-minute precipitation data for this station are
temporary and will only be displayed for 120 days.
Time series of 15-minute or cumulative daily values will NOT
be available for retrieval following the 120-day display
period. Although the instrumentation is calibrated at least
once/year, the temporary classification means that documented
routine inspections and other quality assurance measures are
not performed that would make the data acceptable for
archival, retrieval, or future use in general scientific or
interpretive studies.
This station is
affected by ice
during extreme cold weather periods. A description of the
