The real distressing problem here is, we don't change anything and the
background changes. We have a cron-job that always runs the same code
the same way, every 2 minutes. We flog the out of it and the CPU
and create several different formats. The GIF format is the native
output.

Outside the US, virtually all radar are fee-for-service products.
Further, with the exception of some Korean (South Korean!) sites that
now have WSR-88d's and openRPGs, very few radar systems produce anything
that's more than remotely compatible with the systems we use. I've been
trying to acc

polarographic projections that I've not liked.

Silly question, if you want a raw radar ov

This is a good thing. Now we can also use radar images that have roads and
other labels on them and b

"Until Gerry can find the source of the seemingly random changes in background
color produced by the weather radar script, the best you can do is to edit
the WMSRadar.geo file to change the TRANSPARENT value. If it's 0x010101
then change it to 0x00 (or vice-versa). It might fix the map.

Not sure what I did, IF I did it, but tonight when I try to load
weather maps
on top of tiger maps, the whole thing turns black with station icons on top.
Are the weather map sites down? Or have I created a problem locally?
Thanks,
