Solved GFS data outage

[Filip_K]

NOAA GFS model has not been updated since yesterday 12:00 UTC due to connection problem to NOAA servers.

Update: Connection to NOAA servers has been restore and GFS model is updated again.

@filip_k Thank you for this information! Seeing that the GFS hasn't updated was driving me insane. Looking forward to this being fixed as our local forecasters are favoring the GFS modelling for hurricanes.

A priori some internet fiber was cut at Boulder and model download web site was completly unavailable between 0937Z FRI AUG 27 2021 and 1801Z FRI AUG 27 2021.
