the latest update?  At the top of the hour when it ID's, gives the time 
and temperature it sometimes announces "Update Special Weather 
Statement".  It does not seem to be every hour, maybe every other hour 
or so.  I live in Las Vegas we do not get a lot of these, mostly wind or 
excessive heat or flood in summer.  It worked great until I ran the 
update Tuesday morning, now I get the messages now and then.  It is a 
personal node so it is not being broadcast on a repeater but I was 
wondering if something changed with the update.  Thanks for any info you 
can assist with.
