Status Updates

Maintenance is being performed on the power distribution systems of our data center. Power to the data center will be switched off on Wednesday, May 17, 2023 from 6:00am-8:00am ET to troubleshoot and test the automatic transfer switch. This is required to ensure that we can switch to generator power when future electrical outages occur.

During this timeframe, most products and services hosted by the NCSCO will be unavailable, including:

• Data ingest and databases
• Data retrieval (including Cardinal and API) and other web products, including those on products.climate.ncsu.edu
• Gridded data services
• Hosted projects and services, such as DOT MPE (website and data), FireWx (website and data), CRONOS (login and API), and USAblight

Please note that this outage will not affect the websites for NCSCO and ECONet, but it might impact other pages that reference the above services.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us at help@climate.ncsu.edu
