You too will believe a weatherman can fly ...

TV The BBC are revamping the weather maps across their channels to resemble a flight simulator: "The new system will replace the BBC's current six-year-old weather graphics. There will be less reliance on traditional maps, with weather forecasts instead feeling like a flight simulator game. Details revealed today indicate that forecasts will include a fly-over element with meteorologists being able to change "camera angles" to focus on particular parts of the UK. Rain and other weather conditions will be rendered in 3D, adding more of a realistic look to the on-air presentation."
