I've given up on them. The USRadar no longer works, and WMSRadar has been
returning an error HTML page instead of an image for months. Oddly, this is
converted to an image by imagemagick (using html2ps), which leads
to a blob of random junk in one corner of the display on my systems. It took
me a while to trace the source of that junk down to WMSRadar.
I have no idea if there are any working radar image servers left anywhere
that can be used by cobbling together a .geo file. I'd love to hear that there
is.
