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.
I'll be in Boulder in a month or so, working with the developers and
getting some additional training. I'll get with them and see what they
think.

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 0x000000 (or vice-versa). It might fix the map. You
will
probably have to change it back a day or two later, though."
A workaround for these TRANSPARENT value issues that I usewould be to make
a copy of the WMSRadar.geo file with whatever TRANSPARENT value that you
need to have to get around this and just select the right map (for what
is happening today :-).
For example, I have a USRadar.geo and a USRadar_black.geo. Original has
TRANSPARENT of "0x00000000" and the _black has "0x0FFFFFFFF". By the way,
the issue that prompted me to do this for the USRadar map has not
reappeared
in a while...
