I don’t like it, it’s another exercise in taking a functional website and ‘modernising’ it by making it look like a mobile app (i.e. the make it look attractive to kindergarten kids school of design).
For my own use cases it’s made it more annoying to get to the 7 day Canberra forecast, made the local radar harder to see, and I’m not noticing a link to the written ACT region forecast which I will want to look at in winter.


Sigh, time to rewrite my scraper so I can have just the facts in my top panel again. Last one got like 5 years I think, hopefully they’re not going to up the pace…
You shouldn’t scrape a web page when they have their own free API

Just use one of their feeds. Why on earth would you mess around with scraping the web UI?
Why not just pull the data from their ftp or something downstream like openmeteo?
