[IDD #YYZ-448816]: LIGHTNING (FT14,NLDN) and HRRR

> Hi All

Hi John,

We "had" Mary Tyree as the site contact for UCSD..on aeolus.ucsd.edu

Are you replacing Mary, or are you managing just "atmos"?

We can then update/correct the site contact list at:

Great, please direct your request for NLDN to:

Dr. David Knight
Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences
University at Albany
State University of New York
address@hidden

..the above info came from:

http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/data/lightning/nldn.html


All NLDN requests are fed point to point from SUNY-Albany.

As for the HRRR, you can request that from us via:

idd.unidata.ucar.edu


the HRRR is on the NGRID feeedtype, are you interested in the complete output?

The volume is high on the HRRR feed, and currently it appears as if you are 
experiencing some latency issues..via:

http://rtstats.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/rtstats/iddstats_nc?CONDUIT+atmos.ucsd.edu

Did you recently re-set the clock on atmos.ucsd.edu?...or maybe some packet 
shaping or throttling going on perhaps?

With these large latencies ( > 3000 seconds), it may be difficult for "atmos" 
to keep up with the HRRR feed (3-4GB/hour)

I am concerned that your data ingest is not optimal, and you are likely 
dropping some products when you are at your peak latency.

We are here to help :)
