GOES-R is scheduled to launch on 4 November, and when operational it will routinely provide 1-minute imagery in mesoscale sectors. (it will be phenomenal, I can hardly wait !)

Don't hold your breath on that GOES-R imagery. The launch has been delayed for years now, it may be further-delayed. Even if it does launch in November, I've read that the plans are to keep it parked in orbit for a couple of years in standby mode. Of course, that could change.

they are readying users all over the world for data from GOES-R, here's a recent presentation from Hong Kong: http://tinyurl.com/goes-r-hongkong

all that info and more: http://www.goes-r.gov/

I will wait with bated breath and confidence

GOES R will be renamed GOES 16 once it reaches geostationary orbit. Initially, controllers position the satellite at 89.5 degrees West longitude for an extensive year-long checkout and validation. It then awaits call-up to replace either the GOES West or GOES East operational observatories covering the U.S.
