How are forecasts presented in the rest of Europe? Do they do it more
seriously or do they, like us, tend to regard it as entertainment? And what
about America, Canada, Australia etc? Has anyone got actual experience of
other countries' forecasts? Just interested.

Presumably in Sweden the presenters are naked :-)

Saw one in Austria and it had 3-D graphics of the Alps with rather cheesy
lightning flashes. Totally useless for working out where you were, but then I
was at a disadvantage as I couldn't understand what was being said !

I *personally* think things have gone too far with flashy graphics etc.
The best way to present weather to the public IMHO is with clear maps and with a
clear and structured dialogue in plain English (or French/German etc).
