Hi,  
It seems that USBR data is unavailable and my code breaks

Hi @rasyidstat,

It does indeed seem like the USBR RISE data service is having an outage. Data being unavailable from data providers is something that we can’t control, and your submissions will need to deal with that.

If your forecast job has failed due to not handling certain data being unavailable, you are have the opportunity and permission to submit updated code to fix that problem.

> Some examples of permitted and not permitted changes:
> 
> - ✅ **Permitted** : Updating your data processing code to fix a runtime error if some specific piece of data is not available.

Please see section on [“Modifications and job failures”](https://www.drivendata.org/competitions/259/reclamation-water-supply-forecast/page/828/#modifications-and-job-failures) for more instructions about submitting fixes.
