NOAA Warnings Version 5.6 issue

Brian,

This morning we had Thunderstorms come through with alerts and here is the outcome from NOAA warnings. Is that what will be expected since I only have MNZ078?

That’s exactly what I am seeing.

its not clear to me exactly what are you saying is and is not working?
also vers 5.8 is the latest version

The latest WD Version 10.37S Bld 15 Zip update has version 5.6. I will have to look in the Forum.

Found the 5.8 link:
http://www.weather-display.com/downloadfiles/wdxmlwarning.zip
Updated WD and the issue is still occurring.

Setup Minnesota and use zone code MNZ061 and you will see what I mean.

Here is the look on the Weather Display Generated Webpage: This is Anoka County. I chose it to show you the example. http://curtiszmweather.com/wxwdzumbrota.php

This is what I am seeing in the %noaawarningraw% tag on my main program window. Highlighted middle left…


Brian,

Will 5.9 fix the issue I was seeing yesterday during our Special weather statement?

@CurtisZM
its still not clear to me what the exact problem is?
rather than post a whole lot of stuff for me to try and guess/work out what is wrong, why not spell it out for me?
@ncwxhappens
you do not say which version of the wdxmlwarning.exe program you are using
(make sure you are using the latest update)
also it would be helpfull to include what state and county, etc, so that I can try and duplicate

Brian,

I found the 5.8 update which I installed and the problem was still there. I am unable to duplicate due to the passing of the storm and special weather statement.

I’m sorry Brian but everything after the last sentence " MOVE TO HIGHER GROUND." is what was on the Weather Display Generated Webpage on my website. I completely forgot to printscreen the NOAA statement link. If my memory serves me, after the statement on NOAA’s weblink it was just displaying other counties on the bottom. I will provide more next time.

Take a look at COC063 State=Kansas. They have a special weather statement.

Here is the link: http://forecast.weather.gov/showsigwx.php?warnzone=COZ091&warncounty=COC063&firewxzone=COZ253&local_place1=10%20Miles%20SE%20Burlington%20CO&product1=Special+Weather+Statement&lat=39.1984&lon=-102.1339#.V5V8-zWdB8E

I have just tested Colorado, COZ0918
and I am not able to duplicate the problem with the other counties
with vers 5.9

when the problem next occurs, see what shows in the noaawarningraw.txt file in the webfiles folder
and also make sure to include what state and what county zone

Sounds good. Thanks Brian.

Brian,

Glad to see you’ve experienced the problem. You kind of have to look at the NOAA map and find a county that has the alert or statement you are looking for.

You can look at this link: https://alerts.weather.gov/cap/us.php?x=1?map=on

Or the map: http://www.weather.gov/

you are you refering to the other thread?
as its not very clear

I know. No alerts to produce the issue. Sorry. Thank you for working on it.

if you are refering to the other thread (its still not clear if you are or not)
I did duplicate and fix the issue in vers 6.0
(it should be fixed, the problem is by the time I went to test my fix the warning had gone)
http://www.weather-display.com/downloadfiles/wdxmlwarning.zip

Thanks again.

It is really awesome how you support your software. Especially with a family and other responsibilities.
