Dear all,

My apologies for being so late with this announcement.

Metop-B will undergo a planned manoeuvre tomorrow, 19. Dec 2012, around 12:36 UTC. As usual, the POD component of the GRAS data processing will be reset, and level 1b data quality will be degraded for about 4 hours after the event. The data will be flagged accordingly. We expect Metop-B data to be of nominal data quality again for observations starting from (around) 16:45 UTC.

We do not expect any impact on the operational GRAS/Metop-A data.

With kind regards,

Christian.
