Thanks!  I use VWS to check for warnings every 5 minutes and update the 1.txt file on my web site.  Or I could probably have done something similar with InterWARN as well.  I added code to Anole's weather sticker script to check whether a warning exists.  If it does, the sticker displays "Weather Statement!".  If not, "No Weather Warnings" is displayed, except that I will display the heat index or wind chill instead if conditions warrant.

A few others have found ways to be more specific with the weather statement information, like displaying "Severe Thunderstorm Watch" rather than "Weather Statement", but I'd like people to visit my site to get that information.  :wink:
