Hi there,

The output you see from SPC is not from AWIPS2.  AWIPS2 uses reduced polygons 
for the county outlines
for pgen because the generated text can only contain so many points, otherwise 
there would be an
unreasonably long list of lat/lon points and would clog up the clarity of the 
warning.
At this time we don't plan on looking into the issue as it still gives the 
general idea of what's going
on, while still producing a legible warning output. For better county 
definitions, you can load the
county maps from the maps menu.

Thanks.
