Need to update the links to the new ScienceBase records.

I gather you're working on this, but just in case, the ftp site seems to have been removed. The ScienceBase version seems to be the only access-point now. E.g., I'm getting this error when trying to download:

bbs<- bbsAssistant::quick_get_bbs(state.names = c("Florida", "Nebraska"), overwrite.bbs = FALSE, overwrite.routes = FALSE, get.conditions = TRUE, overwrite.conditions = FALSE) # get weather conditions, does not overwrite

trying URL 'ftp://ftpext.usgs.gov/pub/er/md/laurel/BBS/DataFiles/States/Florida.zip' Error in download.file(url = urls[i], destfile = fn.local) : cannot open URL 'ftp://ftpext.usgs.gov/pub/er/md/laurel/BBS/DataFiles/States/Florida.zip' In addition: Warning message: In download.file(url = urls[i], destfile = fn.local) : InternetOpenUrl failed: ''

Thanks, Adam, I was not aware of the move to ScienceBase earlier.

Resolved.
