June 08, 2008 · version 1.7.1Confusion with zone codes
Mike BartmonThere are 2 sources of confusion.
1) The NWS site displays codes as NYZxxx (for New York) but the codes that the RSS feed respond to are in the form: NYCxxx.
2) When I enter the code for my county the alerts that I receive are from another county:
I entered NYC035 (Eastern Essex) but receive alerts for NYC039 (Southern Fulton).
