Power Interuption at SWPC

Power Interuption at SWPC
published: Monday, August 03, 2015 14:21 UTC

On 29 July 2015 at about 1:35PM MDT (1935 UTC), SWPC experienced a sudden loss of power to all systems. The root cause of the outage is under investigation. As of about 4:30PM MDT (2230 UTC) all services, including GOES real-time space weather data, have been restored. We apologize for any inconvenience caused by this unexpected outage.  We did not fail over to our backup system as it was decided that it would be faster to recover systems in Boulder than to spin up our processing from a cold-start at our back-up site.
