I'm not impressed with the new graphics on TVOne's weather. Looks boring?

Re: New Graphics
Well, this is not much of an improvement. Imagary looks as though it's fine despite the forecast. Maybe that's their intention?Richard wrote:I've never liked there satellite imagery that they've used over the last couple of years

Re: New Graphics
Well in all honesty you can't really stick a Cb into those types of graphics because forecasting isnt good enough to to say Cb's will develop in this exact location.Michael wrote:Its like tv3s of a few years ago,unsure if theirs still similar but as JG says it doesnt show cbs,even stratus and looks all high cloud associated with fronts above the low level frontal stuff.
Stratus and Cumulus and Cirrus are ones that are in use from TV3 atm.

Re: New Graphics
i actually like the really old tv 1 weather city graphics. But i do like the new detail graphics of the cities. The weather graphics i am meaning are when they actually used to show beefy showers.
This is the best i could find of it. I dont even know why i care though. Its not as even as if i use the news weather to inform me. Its more just because ive already been watching the news.

Re: New Graphics
I think the main-centre graphics are a definite improvement on the old ones. I found the circling view of the cities always detracted from what was being said. I've lost count of the amount of times members of our household have asked, 'what did they say tomorrow's temps were going to be?'.

Re: New Graphics
Still not keen on TV One's weather graphics. Not much improvement from when they first put them on
They need someone to design graphics that look more realistic?

Re: New Graphics
Yeah there new graphics dont look that good. I prefer the old graphics they had about 5 years ago. Plus now they dont seem to use the right simbol to match the forcast. Ive seen a forcast of few showers have the full rain simbol which is bit misleadeding.
