The PPS (Precipitation Processing System) will be down Sunday September 13, 2020 from approximately 1:00 PM - 7:00pm EDT (17:00 - 23:00 UTC) for scheduled GPM archive maintenance.

It is projected that PPS's GPM research data server (Arthurhou) will offline for 6-8 hours and all data processing, etc. will be halted until maintenance has concluded. Data will continue to be collected from the GPM Core Observatory and constellation satellites, and access to the GPM near real-time data server (Jsimpson) will not be affected. 

During this time all data transfers between PPS source and its consumer systems (GDAAC/DISC) as well as Science User Services (FTP and STORM access) will be unavailable.

PPS is also planning a more extensive archive maintenance period spanning multiple days near the end of this month (September 2020) which will affect GPM data access.  Another announcement will be sent once the details and dates are finalized.

Thank you for your attention and patience.
