Latest information for GPM NRT System and IMERG V07 Updates

The PPS has moved the date of the GPM Near-realtime (NRT) computing system updates to take place on Monday, June 3, 2024. At this time, IMERG will also be updated to V07. June 1 and 2 IMERG data will be included in the “initial processing”, so that the entire month will be available at V07 without having to wait for the Final to be processed at the usual 3.5-month latency. PPS has already made available on jsimpson.pps.eosdis.nasa.gov and jsimpsonhttps.pps.eosdis.nasa.gov IMERG V07B Early Run retro-processed data. The V07B data is in /NRTPUB/imerg/early/ subdirectories: 200006-200012 200101

Too little or too much precipitation can mean the difference between life and death. Join us as we learn about the impacts of having too much or too little precipitation and the disasters that can occur as a result. Discover what we are learning about the connection between extreme weather events and climate change. Find out the many ways that NASA is helping us monitor and respond to natural hazards and disasters.

Upcoming GPM Near Real-Time Server Updates and Start of IMERG V07 Early and Late Processing

On June 1, 2024, the Precipitation Processing System (PPS) will be performing updates and maintenance on the GPM near real-time (NRT) servers. As a result, GPM NRT data will not be produced during this time and it's expected that the GPM NRT servers will be inaccessible for several hours. In event of anomalies during the update process, the servers may be down for a few days. In addition, the following updates are planned for IMERG V07: On June 1, 2024, hour 00, IMERG V07 Early and Late will begin production at the PPS (Initial Processing [IP]). Any June 1 data generated before the V07 update

May 9, 2024, 8:00 p.m. ET Overview In this webinar we will explore Earth’s weather and climate through the lens of NASA. Learn the difference between weather and climate, why it’s challenging to accurately predict the weather, and explore different weather and climate models. Also, learn how NASA’s “Earth to Sky” program is engaging with interpreters across the U.S. to collaborate and share this and other information with the public.
