The radar-status.php script was updated yesterday with that change in the standalone script and the Base-USA distribution

Ken, may I suggest that the radar-status script be also included in the 'Base-Canada' package (scripts) - since most large Canadian cities are located just north of the USA border, many of the American radar stations are available to us 'northerners'.

Unfortunately, the EC doesn't provide a radar status that includes the actual site ID, so an equivalent EC radar-status script is not currently feasible. Here is what they provide. Folks who use NWS radar displays on their Canadian sites are welcome to install the standalone radar-status script on their template site.  I don't think that including it in the Canada or World distributions is appropriate -- experts can always add scripts to their sites as they wish.
