FNMOC is behind in providing the SSMIS data used in IMERG. Therefore, the Early and possibly Late IMERG products will contain less satellite estimates and be of somewhat lesser quality. FNMOC stopped providing data around 00 UTC today (8 September 2016), meaning there has been no data available from the three operational SSMIS sensors to the TMPA-RT datasets. As a result, more lower-quality IR-based estimates are being used. In addition, if there are dropouts in the IR data, there is a higher probability that gaps will appear in the combined product, 3B42RT. We will update the situation when...

The PPS (Precipitation Processing System) will be down today, July 19, 2016 from 8:00am -14:00pm EDT (12:00 - 18:00 UTC). for scheduled maintenance. 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. You may contact PPS Operations at helpdesk@mail.pps.eosdis.nasa.gov You will be informed when PPS systems become available. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

We are contacting you to report an problem where Version 4 GPM data products could not be read using the 4.2.2.1 version of netCDF. Users are recommended to upgrade to netCDF 4.3.3.1 or later. Any software (OPeNDAP, etc.) that uses older than netCDF Version 4.3.3.1 (what we tested, versions earlier in the 4.3 series may also work) will not be able to read GPM DF5 Version 4 data.
