Subject:
NSA/MWR/C1 - Incorrect brightness temperatures and retrievals
DataStreams:nsamwrlosC1.b1, nsa5mwravgC1.c1, nsamwrtipC1.a1
Description:
The brightness temperatures and retrieved PWV and LWP show a sudden jump and have values 
that are too high. The suddenly jump back to normal at around 1800 UTC. All other 
parameters seem reasonable so the cause of the jump may just be due to accumulation of either 
snow or melting ice on the radome.
Suggestions: 
Data between 00 and 1800 UTC should be disregarded
