Where are you pulling the info from? Regardless, this is something I didn't realize I wanted but have already followed the relevant ones. I don't like all the third party weather sites and usually rely on NOAA, but this makes it so I will see the radar in the morning. Cool stuff.

Is @DeepSouthWxGIF Broken or deprecated? Hasn't tweeted in 40 days and they appear to be colored differently.
