Subject: Discontinue the Supplementary Data
Observation (SDO) and Supplementary Climate Data (SCD) products. Effective March 3, 2012
Effective
March 3, 2012, at approximately 1500 Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), the NWS
will discontinue the distribution of the SCD and SDO products. The
discontinuation of the SCD/SDO products is a result of a 2 year evaluation of
the usefulness of these products to distribute climate data. NWS received very
few requests for these products and did not have a set of consistent users. The
NWS distributes the same information through other products, already familiar
to the public, such as Preliminary Climate Data (F-6), Daily Climate Report (CLI),
Monthly Weather Summary (CLM), RR3 local products, Temperature and
Precipitation Table (RTP), etc.
For
questions on discontinuance of these products, contact:
