MESSAGE DATE: APR 17 2011 13:55:35 UTC

THE NWS CHICAGO/ROMEOVILLE WSR-88D, KLOT, IS IN THE INITIAL STAGES

OF A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OF THE GEARING IN THE RADAR PEDESTAL. THIS

IS THE PORTION OF THE RADAR WHICH SPINS THE ANTENNA. A TEAM FROM THE

WSR-88D RADAR OPERATIONS CENTER (ROC) WILL BE REBUILDING THE

PEDESTAL. THE RECONSTRUCTION OF THE PEDESTAL GEARS WILL REQUIRE THAT

THE RADAR BE OUT OF SERVICE FOR 5 TO 10 DAYS. WHILE THE KLOT WSR-88D

IS OUT OF SERVICE, ADJACENT LOCAL RADARS FROM ILX, DVN, MKX AND IWX

MAY BE UTILIZED FOR COVERAGE.
