Detail: | From 2018-08-17, the Meteosat 0M-0 HRV upper window will be shifted to the west position at 10:00 UTC every day, instead of 17:00 UTC as currently implemented. This is to allow for a better coverage of the Azores. The HRV window coverage in the East will be maintained via the Meteosat RSS and IODC HRV windows.
