    In case not everybody has seen the announcements – Metop-B HIRS is now off. You should not try to process it with AAPP.

    EUMETSAT’s announcement:

    Start Time: 2025-01-21 00:00:00.0
    End Time: 2025-01-21 00:00:00.0
    Detail: The Metop-B HIRS instrument recovery since 17/03/2023 has not been successful. EUMETSAT has, therefore, decided to switch off the instrument permanently.
    Issue Time: 2024-12-12 16:38:13.0
