The gradient in the color bar shows white for the range 70+, not 60-70.
60-65 and 65-70 appear colored correctly according to how you define FLINE.
The number of colors defined by FLINE should correspond to the number of
fill intervals defined in FINT. In the case of your first image, the
number of intervals displayed is one more than FLINE defines, so the colors
"wrap" and white (for values less than 10) is used once again.
