Interesting.  Xastir supports WMS, so it's do-able. Might not take a

If someone has some ATUs and wants to figure out how to parse the data it might be loadable into Xastir.  But since the data is changing/updated on a regular basis you'd have to write an entirely separate program that fetches the new data on a schedule and then "serves" it up to Xastir.

And as soon as it all was working the NWS would change everything once again.
