      Satellite IR & Vis always misses one frame at 11AM + 8 (3Z) over Malacca Strait. See screenshots below captured at 10:59AM and 11:09AM: the only thing that is different is the time shown. So instead of 10 minutes gap from frame to frame, at 11AM it becomes 20 minutes.

        @hangInThere Hi, this is caused by regular and planned outages of the Himawari satellite. More info here.

          The announced maintenance time on Himawari satellite (23:14 UTC on 30 November) is different. Not even close. Besides, the 11AM (03:00 UTC) frame loss happens every day, whereas Himawari's announced maintenance fall on only a handful of days in November. @Filip_K

            @hangInThere Sorry, it was a bad link, however there can be unplanned outages as well. I discussed this with colleagues from the product team and we have about 2 missing pictures in last 24 hours and we have experience that these images are added then very often. At this moment, we are satisfied with data we get from our source and there isn't much about this to do.

              I see JMA's Himawari-8 satellite images is missing the frame at 02:50 UTC, which corresponds to the missing frame on Windy at 03:00 UTC :

                @hangInThere For the record, another hole in the Himawari-9 image sequence at 14:50 UTC, the two holes being exactly 12 hrs apart :
