It's a matter of personal preference, and how important weather alerts are to you. The county shapefiles are updated often, but in my area the relevant data doesn't actually change. I only update my NWS shapefiles every few years (when I updated today to test the fixes to the script, it was the first time I had done so in 5 years, and have had no problems displaying weather alerts at all). Others seem to want to have the latest ones at all times. So, your mileage will likely vary. > From: Tom Russo <[email protected]> > To: [email protected]; [email protected] > Sent: Thursday, July 6, 2017 10:51 AM > Subject: Re: [Xastir] get-NWSdata script > > For what it's worth, I just pushed a fix to the script that makes it once > again Bourne shell-friendly. > > It is commit 7c6bab87.??
