GOES Space Weather Instrument Status
GOES-10: De-orbit scheduled for December, 2009 (only working XRS)
GOES-14: launched June 27, 2009
Test period from July – December, then will be placed in storage
XRS – GOES-14 XRS pointed at Sun Monday Aug 3 and will be made operational in December
EPS –GOES-12 is YELLOW due to noisy electron data and some failed proton channels
SXI – GOES-13 YELLOW due to 8 rows of CCD pixels being damaged – obscures part of solar disk

Numerical Model Transition Plans
Heliosphere Model: Predict conditions at L1 with 1-4 day lead time
WSA/ENLIL w/CME being transitioned by SWPC w/assistance from D. Odstrcil
Plan to make operational in 2012
Geospace Model: Given L1 data or prediction, predict ground level magnetic variation
SWPC has asked CCMC to carry out validation and verification studies on existing models
Announced to community in June
Started working with modelers at GEM meeting to coordinate agreeable competition standards
Yu and Ridley (2008)
Replacing ACE and SOHO/LASCO
NOAA working with NASA and USAF to hopefully fly DSCOVR (formerly TRIANA)
Proposed launch 2013
