Map->Disable All Map should _not_ be checked
Map->Enable Area Color Fills may need to be checked (don't remember)
Map->Enable Weather Alerts must be checked

It's possible that WXSVR isn't up, or isn't functioning on those
particular alerts properly for some reason.

FWIW:  I'm not seeing any currently in my View->Weather Alerts

down or that somebody changed the format.
