Patrick,

This is a station table issue that I have previously addressed:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/support/help/MailArchives/gempak/msg05106.html

The Canadian AUTO8 station ADS reports are being displayed in TX.
The solution is to change the Addison, TX ADS entry to KADS
as has been done in the present release.
