Comments:
County Warning Areas (CWA's) are extracted from a master county/zone shapefile,
and boundaries are therefore congruent with state/county/zone shapefiles where lines are shared.
The CWA boundaries currently divide (split) 22 counties in seven states...AK(5), AZ(2), CA(11), FL(1), ID(1), ME(1), NY(1)...
(see County shapefile's CWA field)
