We haven't set a date for the termination of the BUFR data but it's not
long into the future..So it's also on SBN.

JUGE86 KKCI - sierra product
JUHE00 KKCI - tango product
JUIE00 KKCI - zulu product

But you should be transitioning to the USWX datasets by now. I'm
transitioning our website to using the USWX data.

We'll also be adding mountain wave turbulence to the G-AIRMET. I believe
the SCN will be going out soon. We're aiming for an April 30 start date on
mountain wave.

If you have any questions on decoding the data let me know.

Dan.
