Default BBC Graphics - a new hope!

Just watched the local forecast from BBC South (South Today). The
local forecaster started with a synoptic chart!. She followed up by
mentioning the pressure in the Atlantic, and then gave offshore and
onshore wind forecasts for the next four days. There was even a
display of the local pressure.

In fact she produced a pre-change forecast using the new graphics!

There is hope!


And my local BBC forecaster, the other Paul Hudson, produced a synoptic
sequence without the fronts in his evening forecast, and joked that he would
get in trouble for it. I don't think he likes the new system.
