Default Farewell Synoptic Charts(BBC)/Philip Eden

It is very clear that a decision has been made to simplify, but in an instant
they have swept away all those who have a slightly more learned interest


This is what I don't understand, I have no training in meteorology and
synoptics are not even slightly hard for me to comprehend with just a bit of
applied thought. They give a very clear and comprehensive picture of what
the weather might be doing -- now they're gone, or rendered useless (as on
BBCi).


Does Bill Giles run a web site. I gather he was given the push from the
BBC for being too reactionary.

(A matter of great credit, as recent events show)
