Possible Changes to NWS Icons

Saw this on Facebook. Would this open up a whole can of worms for the script writers or what?

NWS/BOX has been using that set-up for a year or more....no big deal here.

Can of worms being examined for changes :)
Got the new 86x86 png icons for reference from http://www.weather.gov/forecast-icons

I'll have to see them in action on a forecast to see how they're doing the POP overlay and new vertical split icon naming before I can update the script.

Best regards,
Ken
