I don't get it. The old BOM website worked so well. Now replaced with a complete useless design.

I agree. People these days change things just so its different not necessarily better and call it progress to justify it.

I use Willi Weather on the Mobile Phone and Weatherzone on the Laptop. Both work great and give good details. On occasions I'll take a peek at BOM but not often.



Keep Safe on the roads and out there.

Willy Weather is BOM data based.

I think it's fine it may take a little practice but all is good. I'm pretty sure that every Australian based weather service will be using BOM.

Whatever you do, don't mention the BoM on a plane.

I had a look at that BOM website.
Very ordinary.
One look, no return.

I find Elders weather OK......

An English firm took over one of my long term Australian software providers application I have used for years for work.

It has been a hellish experience since.
Have wound back operations heaps but still frustrated with the little time I use that application now.
The most useless user unfriendly website in the history of man.

Makes you really wonder sometimes.......
