    ARRL Systems Service Disruption

06/04/2024

*Updated 6/4/2024*

On or around May 12, 2024, ARRL was the victim of a sophisticated 
network attack by a malicious international cyber group. ARRL 
immediately involved the FBI and engaged with third party experts to 
investigate.

This serious incident was extensive and categorized by the FBI as 
?unique,? compromising network devices, servers, cloud-based systems, 
and PCs.

ARRL management quickly established an incident response team. This has 
led to an extensive effort to contain and remediate the networks, 
restore servers, and staff are beginning the testing of applications and 
interfaces to ensure proper operation.

Thank you for your patience and understanding as our staff continue to 
work through this with an outstanding team of experts to restore full 
functionality to our systems and services.

We will continue to update members as advised and to the extent we are able.

/This story will be updated with new developments./

    ARRL Systems Service Disruption

06/06/2024

*Updated 6/6/2024*

We are aware that certain members believe we should be openly 
communicating everything associated with this incident. We are working 
with industry experts, including cyber crime attorneys and the 
authorities, who have directed us to be conservative and cautious with 
our communications while restoring the ARRL network.

ARRL?s association membership system was not impacted by this attack. 
Members can renew online at www.arrl.org/join or by phoning ARRL. 
Additionally, the online ARRL Store is operating as normal. ARRL Field 
Day merchandise is still available for immediate shipping. Please see 
this latest news 
<https://www.arrl.org/news/2024-arrl-field-day-2-weeks-away-free-shipping-on-fd-merch>story 
about ARRL Field Day.

The digital edition <http://www.arrl.org/magazines>of the July 2024 
issue of /QST/ will be available as scheduled, on Friday, June 7.?The 
print edition will go to press on Monday, June 10. Members may also 
access digital editions of /QST/ dating back to 2012, and current and 
previous issues of /On the Air/, /QEX/, and /NCJ/ magazines back to 2020.

As previously reported, the ARRL Volunteer Examiner Coordinator is 
processing Amateur Radio License applications received from Volunteer 
Examiners who completed candidate exam sessions. As of June 6, our staff 
are processing applications from exams given on May 22.

As previously reported, W1AW, the Hiram Percy Maxim Memorial Station is 
fully operational <https://www.arrl.org/w1aw-operating-schedule>with 
voice, CW, and digital bulletins, code practice, and qualifying runs 
<https://www.arrl.org/qualifying-run-schedule>. The station continues to 
welcome visiting operators <https://www.arrl.org/visit-us>during normal 
visiting hours.

The ARRL June VHF Contest <https://www.arrl.org/june-vhf>is June 8 ? 10, 
2024. Online log submission will be supported as usual. The log 
submission function was similarly supported for the recent ARRL Digital 
Contest <https://www.arrl.org/arrl-digital-contest>, held June 1 ? 2.

The publication of most ARRL e-newsletters, including the weekly ARRL 
Letter, has resumed with minimal disruption to regular schedules. A new 
platform for emailing newsletters has been implemented, leading to some 
variations in layout.

The next MWA meeting, at the Red Cross Building on Pineview Drive in
Morgantown, at 7:00 PM local time, on June 18, will be filled with final
information and assignments for Field Day,

The following MWA meeting, to be held at the same time and location on July
16, and the planned program is for us to watch and discuss a video
presented at the Dayton Hamvention ARRL 2024 National Convention, entitled
"Ground is a Myth."  This presentation is 45 minutes long, so we may divide
it in two and watch it over two meetings.  This is a chance for us to get
real, up-to-date definitions and explanations of the confusing topic, "What
is ground?"  I believe that the presenter is K6WX,

I hope both new and old hams will attend this presentation, to answer
questions that may arise from comments in the program.

Below is a link to the *You Tube *video, if, like me, would like to view it
prior to the club presentation

Due to the importance of the heat wave message below from the NWS
Pittsburgh, I am posting it to all three local club lists.

Additionally, most of our area is in a Level 1 Risk for severe weather this
(Friday) afternoon and evening. Parts of Preston County are in a Level 2
risk of severe weather this afternoon and evening.

See the graphic below.

>From the NWS Pittsburgh:

Jeff, WB1AAL

=========================================

Hot off the press: the newest heat wave risk forecast for Sunday-Thursday.

The combination of factors will make next week's potentially historic
heat-wave particularly dangerous:

1) The excessive heat itself, with highs in the upper 90s and potentially
100s on Monday and beyond with peak heating in roughly the 12pm-6pm
timeframe.

2) The lack of a cooldown at night. With dewpoints around 70, low
temperatures will only cool to around the low to mid-70s. This will offer
little reprieve and locations without AC will have a difficult time staying
cool.

3) The duration of the heat. Heat is likely to last through next weekend at
the earliest, with impacts as late as June 24th possible.

This is a particularly dangerous situation. Heat stress is forecast at
major levels Monday and Tuesday, and due to the duration factors, stress is
forecast to become extreme (the highest risk level) by Wednesday and
Thursday.

Message-ID: <CAAoba32-fsYk+k3Qm6-PoitFg7R3EwjFk3nJ+WPXybs=Dr=03w@mail.gmail.com>

This morning the NWS Pittsburgh made the decision to upgrade the heat watch
to a heat advisory for the week (through Friday.) This decision was made
due to anticipated high afternoon temperatures (approaching 100 F) and warm
overnight temperatures (in the 70s F.)

This kind of weather information is normally carried on another ham radio
mailing list that is in place for SKYWARN weather activity and
notifications. This list is open to all interested persons. You do not have
to be a member of the Monongalia Wireless Association or a SKYWARN member
to join the list.

A number of local hams have already subscribed to the SKYWARN
Weather mailing list. However, we may have some newer hams who aren't aware
of the list.

If you would like to subscribe to the list please feel free to do so. It's
easy. Just go to:

https://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/ncwvskywarn

Fill out and submit a simple form and we will get you on the list.

There will be a SKYWARN Spotter training class on Thursday night June 20th
at 1900 EDT in Pittsburgh, PA at the Andrew Carnegie Library.

It?s a bit of a drive from here, but I highly recommended this class to all
local ham operators and it is free. You will learn how to recognize severe
weather and report it  (See the attached graphic.)

Since this is an in-person class, you will have the opportunity to talk
one-on-one with the Meteorologists from the Pittsburgh NWS office.

You can register for the class here:
https://www.weather.gov/pbz/skywarn-schedule

With all this crazy weather recently, there couldn?t be a better time to
take this class!

If you are participating in Field Day over the weekend please stay hydrated
and stay in the shade as much as possible. As things stand now, Field Day
weekend will be extremely hot.

I have asked Mike Kennedy, the Meteorologist on duty this morning at the
NWS Pittsburgh, to provide a preliminary forecast for us over the weekend.
Following is what he provided along with a Heat Risk graphic.

Jeff, WB1AAL

===================================

Expect mostly sunny conditions with potentially record breaking
temperatures. It will be hot. Mid to upper 90s with heat index values above
100F.

Saturday will be the hottest of the two days with temperatures expected to
reach 98 F. (This is the actual temperature?not the feels like. The feels
like temperature with be 106 F.) Sunday will still be slightly cooler but
the temperature will still be well above average.

We will keep an eye on this storm. At this time, we are not planning to

I am happy to announce that we now have a second, easier to remember, email
address.  This address can be used to reach the club or make PayPal
transfers.

The new email address is:

W8MWA at yahoo.com

The email address monongalia.wireless at gmail.com remains an active email
address and can still be used to contact the club or make PayPal payments.

Both email accounts will be monitored on a daily basis.

Subject: [W8MWA] Tornado Watch!
Message-ID: <CAAoba32u53HqwHDjtEMEGb0Kjhv1k_Zo+hXbybnJcUnjP_itKQ@mail.gmail.com>

The NWS Pittsburgh has just issued a Tornado Watch for Monongalia and
Marion Counties until 2000 this evening. Remember that a Watch does not
mean that a tornado has formed or is imminent--it means that conditions are
favorable for tornado development.

At this time we will activate the Monongalia County SKYWARN Net in Standby
Mode. There is no need to check-in to the Net at this time. However, if
possible please monitor the W8MWA two-meter repeater.

Subject: [W8MWA] Severe Thunderstorm Warning Expires--Tornado Watch Continues
Message-ID: <CAAoba31wad0Q9Z9KhOFafCpHJy4PsAVsRRjykhMbFyty6a66PQ@mail.gmail.com>

The Severe Thunderstorm Warning for Monongalia, Marion and Preston Counties
has expired and the Monongalia County ARES SKYWARN Net has reverted to
Standby Mode.

This means that the W8MWA two-meter repeater is available for all normal
amatuer radio activity. However we ask that stations allow breaks in
transmissions for SKYWARN traffic and we ask that all stations continue to
monitor the repeater.

The SKYWARN Net will remain in Standby Mode until the Tornado Warning
expires (currently 20:00 this evening) or the conditions require a return
to Active Mode.

NWS Pittsburgh PA has Issued a Severe Thunderstorm Warning for Preston and
Tucker Counties. The Warning Area encompasses Kingwood/Terra Alta and
south.

This storm is producing  3/4? inch hail and has 60 MPH winds. It is moving
to the east.

This storm is on the fringe of our repeater coverage so we will not be
