Quite nice!  It combines visual attractiveness with all of the necessary information very well.

5:35am PDT advisory on TD-Eight   

Made this pretty quick so there might be some typo but overall how is it?

I like it!!  Definitely TV worthy! :biggrin:  :clap: :thumbsup:

I've never been a fan of self-promotional taglines ("Your hurricane authority") on maps, but... that's just my problem, not yours.  :)

Islands are hard, because highlighting them, by design, has to be different than with land.  However, is there anything you can do so that the Bahamas have either one style or the other?  A faint highlight with two yellow islands in the middle doesn't look so good.

I think you might could try to use that 3D shape like for the track cones, but make it yellow.... That would make it look a bit more eaiser to see?

It looks great, and the problem of "two methods in one space" has been solved.  Granted, it's not at all an easy thing to deal with when you have so many small islands like that, and then one or two that are large enough to merit being treated as land.

You know what?  The TV professionals couldn't have done any better than you did in your revised version.  I'm glad you're willing to make modifications and revisions, because that's only going to let the already outstanding quality of your maps get even better.

I agree! Willing to work around the needs of viewers will help greatly with making graphics... Viewers will look elsewhere if you're content isn't simplistic to read and understand... You've got some great potential with your designing!  :clap: Keep it up, I love these!
