When adding a tropical layer from the model selection tray, the observation layer dots are all white in color and are unresponsive to hover or click.
To reproduce: (in prod env)

1. Open model selection tray and select IDALIA and advisory 12
2. submit and check the first model run in the list
3. notice that when the observations layer appears, all of the station location dots are white

this is due to a data issue between current and old observation data sets.

this anomaly was exposed when the observation layers were corrected.

After some investigation of the older observations problems I found a couple of things.
These records were created before we switched to db based observation data. So it is still looking to get the plot data out of the csv files on the fileserver pod.
Jim changed the name of the observation feature properties when we moved from the old GeoServer JNDI DB that we used for observations, and then switched to his new DB that JNDI uses via GeoServer - source became gauge_owner for values like: NOAA/NDBC, NCEM, etc.
