I've just seen your new weather graphics. TERRIBLE! You make the country
look like Peter Snow's "sandpit" from the Iraq war. What's happened to those
green and pleasant hills eh? I couldn't tell where the rain was meant to be
falling, you managed to induce motion sickness in the space of three minutes
and as for isobars or any kind of "proper" weather information there seemed
to be a complete dearth.
Dumbing down of the worst kind. Bring back the wax crayons and isobars. At
least we'd have some idea of what was happening. At the moment there is no
idea of wind strength, direction, fronts...
And how much did this all cost? A complete waste of money... tell you
what, why don't you get the Chuckle Brothers to come on every night and
shout "Eee, Wrap up warm chuck!"
