Network Outage Rescheduled for 13 May 2024

POSTPONED
Network Outage Rescheduled for 13 May 2024
published: Tuesday, April 23, 2024 20:25 UTC

The required Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC) major network upgrade has been rescheduled for Monday, 13 May, 2024. The planned time frame for this upgrade work is from 11am EDT to 5pm EDT (1500-2100 UTC) and operational capabilities will likely be severely limited.

During portions of this period, SWPC will be unable to issue routine products, watches, warnings, and alerts. Access to products and data on the SWPC website will also be impacted and at times will be severely limited to completely unavailable.

In the event of significant space weather activity, this maintenance will be postponed.
