I'm not sure what you mean by the polygons being transparent? Do you mean not 
filled?
Unfortunately we cannot show maps as filled polygons. This is something we were 
recently discussing and  will have to look into. (Its tricky because of the 3D 
environment).

What you could to make them more distinct is to change the line width of the 
maps.

The problem is that that dataset has a unit, Celsius_scale, that is not an SI 
unit and we cannot parse. 
I will fix the probe problem (it was assuming a unit) and you can try this out 
in tonight's (Friday morning) nightly build:
