[Xastir] Hurricane

[Gerry Creager]

If y'all can document a problem with the map or geo I'll certainly fix 
it.  I believe it's correct, but I'll have to generate another page to 
make it compare using one of the worldfiles I've got.  I'm not 
generating a geotiff per se of the thing.

I'm snagging all the CONUS radars I get data on.  They have to be 
reporting 'PRECIP' mode, rather than 'Clear Air' or 'Maint'.  If they're 
not reporting appropriately, they're not included in the mosaic.  I 
guess I ought to start doing an overlay of Not Avail for the Maint Mode 
ones...

It's sounding like the geofile may be screwed up.  I'll revisit it but I 
thought it was pretty clean before.  I could have fumble-fingered 
something, however...
