Dear all,

Metop-A will undergo a planned in-plane manoeuvre on Wednesday,

29. October 2014, 13:17 UTC

As usual, GRAS/Metop-A level 1 (bending angle) and level 2 (refractivity and 1DVar retrievals as generated upstream by the ROM SAF) will exhibit degraded product quality from the time of the event until about 4 hours later. We expect that data quality is back to nominal at around 17:20 UTC again.

GRAS data from Metop-B will not be affected.

With kind regards,

Christian.
