Patrick, Ray, Pete, Robert, Mike: Thank you for the very kind words! It has been a great run, and I have been honored to be a part of some of the greatest weather minds on this list. Without you, I couldn’t have done what I did. Enjoy the weekend!

While these feeds could be going for up to a year, at that time, if they aren't shut off by then, they will be at that time. There is a possibility that I might be able to serve the UNIDATA community in this way again someday. But if not, it's been a privilege and an honor to provide NOAAport (and other) feeds for 19 years to the community, and I want to thank my parent institution, Northern Illinois University for being so generous in letting me feed and serve you with data for nearly two decades. I especially want to thank Tom Yoksas, Steve Emmerson, and all of those who have helped/interacted with me over the years at UNIDATA that helped make my operation as successful as it was. Until we meet again, may your skies be blue, and…oh, forget that, these are weather people I’m talking to. Have a good lightning show, blizzard, and with deep appreciation, thanks to all of you, too numerous to list here who have helped me in some way over the years.
