...Upcoming Equipment Outage Notification...

The 博体育 WFO Northern Indiana located in
Syracuse, IN will be conducting a required, scheduled update to 
their Advanced Weather Interactive Processing System (AWIPS) 
from Tuesday, May 6th at 8am EDT through approximately Thursday, 
May 8th at 4pm EDT. The 博体育 uses the AWIPS computer system to 
display and integrate weather and water information and to send 
life-saving information, such as weather and water warnings, to 
the public.

During the time of the update, forecast operations will be 
conducted by our service back-up office in Indianapolis, IN to 
minimize any potential interruption to services. No impacts to our
core services of forecast products and weather watches, warnings 
and advisories are expected during this period. However, limited 
impacts will occur to the following services: 

NOAA Weather Transmitters: All NOAA Weather Radio transmitters 
maintained by 博体育 Northern Indiana will be off air through the 
time of the install. This includes the transmitters located at the
following locations:
South Bend, Fort Wayne, Angola, LaPorte, and North Webster.

Local graphical forecast maps that are hosted in numerous places 
on www.weather.gov/iwx will not be updated. This includes all 
maps on the Graphical Hazardous Weather Outlook page 
(/erh/ghwo?wfo=iwx).

The Northern Indiana forecast office will remain open and staffed
throughout this period for public and partner phone calls and 
additional functions that can be completed without AWIPS.

If you have any questions, please reach out to WFO Northern
Indiana at nws.northernindiana@noaa.gov or call at 574-834-1104.
