This version includes update(s) for following module(s):
 
Module Description
 
DSTA/ESTA 191 - Delete privilege is removed for NWS user role and assigned only to designated administrators (helpdesk personnel).

all menu items 197 - If multiple browsers are open, the title bar all says "WIMS". Enhenced to display a more descriptive message in the title bar, so that users know what pages are currently open.  For example, if user has DOBS page open, they would see "WIMS-DOBS" in the title bar instead of "WIMS".

TFCST 180 - Revise the 10 hour fuel moisture and trend forecast algorithm to trend from the calculated value.
DNFDRS 185 - Set 1 hour fuel moisture to 35 when wet flag is set to yes, using SOW and manual input.

Module Description
 
DOBS/DPFCST/DTFCST
all DNFDR modules
11 - Changed the default date from GMT to local date in OBS, Forecast and DNFDRs. The default date when the screen shows up the first time, was set to GMT, so a west coast station user would see the default date set to be one day after the current date. It is now corrected to show the local date to the station.
EOBS 33 - Enabled EOBS to go back to previous DOBS screen.
ESTA/NSTA 91 - Changed lookup table in Station Catalog to NOT associate State, county code, FIPS code by Lat and Long. Add County ("99") to CA.

DAVG 149 - BI/ERC will not be displayed if the fuel models in the weighted SIG is not of the same type
NSIG 151 - Fixed the issue that not all stations are copied when copying a SIG from NSIG.

MSHARE 163 - Fixed the NWS role privilege problem which prohibited the MSHARE product header list to display properly.
navigation tree 164 - Updated FWX and WRCC's website link in the navigation tree.
navigation tree 165 - Fixed compatibility issue of USFSFTP site on Windows XP environment.
SETUSER 168 - Fixed the compatibility problem in the new web server environment that resulted problem in SETUSER.
database setup 169 - Fixed the privilege issue on Counties and States lookup table in the new schema COMMONDATA that kept the extra sensor section of ESTA from displaying properly.
lookup values 170 - Correct station meta data for fips county code. Texas (48) station # 418902 has the wrong county code. Should be Cottle County (101).
