Subject:	SGP/GOES8 - Lost reception due to severe winds
DataStreams:	sgpgoes8visX1.a1, sgpgoes8X1.a1, sgpgoes8visX1.00, sgpgoes8X1.00
Description:	The following information regarding the loss of data was received from Robert Zimdar of SeaSpace Due to severe winds we lost GOES-8 reception at SeaSpace over the weekend. The situation has been corrected and GOES-8 data should be back online as of 1645GMT today, April 5th. Improvements to the GOES-8 antenna are planned and approved, but will not take place until SeaSpace moves to the new building site sometime this summer. I apologize for this and any future problems with the antenna.
