Subject: FAA/WMSCR outage for some sites, starting today


Morning SBN and METAR customers,

FAA is not renewing contracts with their third party vendor.  They sent me a 
list of sites that are not going to be reporting starting today.  There are 58 
sites in this list, which isn't a huge number, but I am curious how this 
impacts customers like yourselves.  Please feel free to share those impacts 
with me.

Thanks,
Holly Uhlenhake
