The precip icons are fine.

Yeah. :yes: I agree. I've noticed that the precip ones are like the ones on weather.com, in which different type of winter precip is separated and not overlaping. I guess this obviously shows the condition better.

This newer icon set's not too bad except for the sun ones, they look like cheeseballs. MMMM! Cheeseballs. Anyways, aren't they going in reverse with their icon set timeline? Shouldn't this newer set be the prototype ones?

It's gonna be interesting to see the graphics overhaul tomorrow. Now that I'm in the know, it won't feel like I was frozen in time for a dozen years. LOL!

My only response: EWW. IMO, these new icons are worse than the old (2006) ones.

Well, the change has been made on the Intellistar. At least with the old set, I was able to ignore the motions in the clouds on them... but these are like the motion ads on the Intellistar... you can't ignore them and look the other way so easily.

Changes made on the satelite, I dun like it  :thumbdown: The old LDL fade comes up right as the local forecast starts (But on sat, it isn't local) The only thing for the forecast that is diffrent here is the icons.
