Greetings Andres,

Not sure what happened yet, but it looks like something happened
around the 18Z run on the 26th and several fields were missing for all
of the model output we serve (at least those I have tested). As of the
12Z runs of the GFS today, it looks like thing have recovered.

Cheers,

Sean
