Somehow I don't think it's shapefile related. I need to talk to some of
the guys at SPC in Norman. May be an excuse to go up there as I've got
business across the hall from them at NSSL, too...
As to the new shapefile of the hour problem, we've also identified
problems with NWS GIS products they weren't even aware of. The "We" is
a guy in training in the COMET program in Boulder, and me. We've been
saying the same things in isolation for about the same period. Now
we're getting more traction as a team. I'd really like to see us fix
that problem before we see NWS issue too much more data with little
spatial QC. Their intent is good but these guys are weather geeks who
have also discovered GIS and may not have studied some of the subtleties...

It's getting so they are releasing new shapefiles faster than we can keep
up.

This is happening all over the place. I see it dozens of times a day. The
weather services are obviously using some new program that is generating
invalid characters in the multipoints.
