I think when I've seen the NWS feed on APRS they do a 'bounding box'. It
looks like they 'connected the dots' creating a multi-line rectangle of
sorts and then they drop an object inside/near the box with information
about it.

You can see an example of what Im talking about right now in the tri-state
area for Kentucky/Indiana/Ohio...there are two such boxes.

It doesnt show the speed, direction, etc stuff as far as I know.
