Bryan,

I noticed this for the first time during the McIDAS workshop that I was
conducting last week.  I just plotting current fronts on top of the
Super National East/West GOES composite available in NOAAPORT (in GINI
format) and did not see the problem (this time).  It appears, therefore,
that the problem is sporadic.  I added it to the list of bugs that needs
attending to.

Thanks for letting me know about the problem...

Tom
