GOES-PRWEB results questionable until NEXRAD is back online
I received an email from Ernesto Rodriguez of the National Weather Service in San Juan this morning, regarding the rainfall data from NOAA’s Advanced Hydrologic Prediction Service (AHPS). GOES-PRWEB uses the AHPS, so until NEXRAD is back online, the GOES-PRWEB results will be questionable.

Here is the email from Ernesto:
AHPS data is questionable without the NEXRAD. Until the NEXRAD returns, the AHPS analysis will be created using the Terminal Doppler Radar(TWDR) at Punta Salinas(Toa Baja) and rain gauges(from USGS).
Please, remember that the TDWR is not very useful to detect showers over the southern half of Puerto Rico and the extreme west of Puerto Rico.

The GOES-13 satellite was offline from September 25 through October 19, 2012. During this time, solar radiation data for PR and the northern Caribbean Region were not available. However, the water and energy balance algorithm (GOES-PRWEB) continued to function with estimated solar radiation data. GOES-PRWEB results for solar radiation and 24 other hydro-climate variables are available at

This is bad news for the Caribbean Region. And this is very bad news for those of you that regularly download solar radiation data from pragwater.com or rely on results from GOES-PRWEB. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) confirmed Monday that GOES-13 has been placed in stand-by mode, following increased vibrations, or “noise,” observed in imagery over the past couple of days.

This post has implications on data from the following pragwater web pages:
