We finally had some weather around here today so that I could see if you fixed it. I think you did. THANK YOU muchly.
You asked why NOZ instead of NOR- when I was setting this up and playing with it MAF didn't have a NOR image for some reason and I picked the NOZ just so I'd have something to look at. I guess I forgot to set it back to NOR. Here is the srb_maf.geo file that showed the storms Sunday night too close to Midland- #NWS_RADAR_maf MIDLAND TX kg5qd 07/04/01 URL http://www.srh.noaa.gov/ridge/RadarImg/N0Z/MAF_N0Z_0.gif # X Y Long Lat TIEPOINT 0 0 -103.928436 33.385647 TIEPOINT 600 500 -100.492622 30.457445 IMAGESIZE 600 500 REFRESH 300 TRANSPARENT 0x000000000 GAMMA 2 #CONTRAST 0 #LEVEL 73s, Gerry Creager <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Please try the WMSRadar selection.
