 Katherine gets its weather from a server with a script "grabMET.sh" which runs on computer dell2ke
 to log on:
-<code> vncviewer dell2ke <code>
+<code> vncviewer dell2ke </code>
+the password is the usual one.
+From here, you need to make sure that only one version of grabMET.sh is running:
+<code> ps -ef | grep grabMET </code>
+should output something like this
+<code>
+observer  8124  7723  0 21:28 pts/1    00:00:00 grep -i grabMET
+observer  9860  3750  0 20:57 pts/0    00:00:00 /bin/bash ./grabMET.sh
+observer 21964 21753  0 21:09 ?        00:00:00 /bin/bash /home/observer/grabMET.sh
+</code>
+Anyway, in ye old vnc window, just close everything. The program which runs some java normally goes to the MET website and downloads the current values. It pipes it into the /tmp/wth file (which you can read with "cat /tmp/wth"). If this file is not being overwritten then it will keep reading the same values.
+Then re-run the script with <code> ~/grabMET.sh </code>
+Watch it for a little bit, make sure that is is working then see if the values are updating with
