I appologise if this is a silly question but Im one of those people that just HAS to know and will boldly ask regardless of how silly it seems.
Do ‘highs’ have a center like ‘low’s’?

Hi there – yes they do – but it’s much larger and much harder to see. Think of highs as a giant dome…it slowly rises up to a point…sometimes they can have two or three "peaks" but usually just the one. Lows are more like funnels with a much more noticeable centre.

Hi Adelaide – thanks for the feedback and support!
We’re aiming to produce three videos a week, Monday, Wednesday and Friday – or around specific weather events. It’s a work in progress but we have some cool new features to add down the road.
Cheers
Philip Duncan
