Production Delay Resolved

TRMM TMI rainfall data updated to version seven, which included a format change (starting July 1). MERRA data production was put on hold while the data ingest of version 7 was updated. This was only a short delay. Current tests indicate no anomalous behavior in the time series that can be attributed to this change. June 2011 data should be online within a few days, and July production and distribution should be available by mid-August, back on schedule.
