2014/09/25 - On 23 September, CLS switched IOBX02 data from Toulouse back to Largo. Data fitted with header IOBX02 KARS are corrupted but the problem is not at CLS America that produces reliable native BUFR data with this header. Feedback sent to NOAA/NWP yesterday.
2014/09/22 - ECMWF reports they can no longer decode IOBX11 LFVW messages (TAO/PIRATA/RAMA moored buoy networks). An element (0 03 007) not known and not present in any table is reported. The problem is forwared to CLS Toulouse.
2014/09/19 - CLS switches the sending of IOBX02 drifting buoy data from Largo (KARS) to their backup service in Toulouse (LFVW) waiting for the problem is fixed in the US.
2014/09/18 - Drifting buoy data with header IOBX02 KARS received at Meteo-France and ECMWF have no longer been valid since the 10th of September. Data sent with this header represent 75% of the whole drifting buoy observations. Investigations are ongoing at CLS to fix the problem.
