I tend to ignore the BBC reports these days, and quite frankly I find my own testicles are better predictors of the weather than they are these days.

Plus now the maps dont display on my iPhone

Bring back the old system

Yes, and also I noticed they seem to have reverted to the old post code database.

Because change is not good.

</DOUR YORKSHIRE ACCENT>

I think that all of us over a certain age have learned the weather forecast in a certain way that was dictated by the limitations of the technology available at the time. i.e. Using sticker symbols on a fixed board meant that the forecast had to be presented to us covering the whole country at once in time-sequence.

Now, most people who wake up in one part of the country will be spending the whole day in that part of the country and so will not be in the slightest bit interested in what happens elsewhere.

Local focus is the way forward - time for the dinosaurs to adapt or clear out I say!
