March 02, 2009 · version 1.7.1Had same trouble with zone codes, but worked fine if used State default
CThough there is over 1000 counties here. I came here to see if I could trouble shoot. Thank you so much Mike Barton, that was exactly the same problem I had. It took me a little while to find a list of codes for all States that use the C instead of Z.
I found this site; http://www.aprs-is.net/WX/NWSCodes.aspx
When typing in the codes take out the underscore next to the state. If you have more than one it should look like this NMC007, NMC015, NMC037. There is one space after the comma.

Confusion with zone codes
MichaelThere 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).
