Data sources status

Every official source this site reads, when it last answered us, and whether it is working right now. This page is built from what the site has already stored. Opening it never asks a source for anything.

Checked · server clock 18:06:05 UTC · database clock 18:06:05 UTC · this page may be up to 2 minutes old

6 of 52 sources are not working normally:

  • GDACS — Global Disaster Alert and Coordination System: failing
  • NOAA National Water Prediction Service (Rivers in flood): failing
  • NOAA Weather Prediction Center (Winter Storm Severity Index): failing
  • British Geological Survey (UK earthquakes): failing
  • Environment and Climate Change Canada (Canada weather alerts): failing
  • SLF (Switzerland) (Avalanche bulletin): failing

Pages fed by these sources show their last good copy, dated, or say they could not be read. They never show an old answer as new.

44 working, 6 failing, 2 switched off.

Read when needed

Tool pages that keep their own copy of one agency's data. Some are refreshed by the site on a schedule; the rest are read only when someone opens the page, so an old copy there means nobody asked, not that the source is down.

What the states mean

Working
The last read succeeded and the copy is as fresh as that source's normal refresh allows.
Delayed
The last good read is more than three times older than the source's normal refresh, with no failure on record. Usually a stalled schedule on our side rather than the agency.
Failing
The last attempt to read it failed, or the site is pausing before trying again after a failure. The reason recorded for the most recent failure is shown with it.
Not read yet
Nothing on record: the page has not been opened, or its copy was cleared, since the server last started fresh.
Switched off
Not configured on this server, so it is never read. The page it feeds says so and points to the agency.

How this page works

For a synced feed the time shown is the last successful run, from the site's own sync log. For every other source it is the time stored with the page's copy of the data. Failure reasons are the last ones recorded for that source's server in the past two days; addresses and keys are removed before they are shown.

The site's owner is e-mailed when a source has been failing or delayed for over an hour, at most once every six hours per source, and once when it recovers. For what each source publishes and its licence, see data sources and attribution and the methodology.
