Need help with array

[davefootball123]

Hi all. I decided it was time to re do my warning map that I have on my website as it was a very in-efficient way to create the map. I have been trying a few things to determine the quickest and most efficient way to do this however I would like your opinion/help.  I have a special weather statements text file seen here http://feeds.michiganwxsystem.com/EC/CWTO/WOCN11.txt . What I am trying to do is match the locations from an array to that text file to see if a special weather statement is in effect for a given region. I am using a preg_match statement currently however I believe it would be easier if I could have an array with every forecast location in it and have the preg_match statement loop through each location in the array to see if there is a special weather statement in effect. The code I have so far is shown below it works from what I can see, the preg_match is looping through the area and is returning if a special weather statement is in effect. It will echo Special Weather Statement however I have to know which location it is returning that value for. If anyone can point me in the right direction from here that would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks, Dave
