Absolute forecasts ("It will be 14°C today") are hard to understand. However, I can remember what the weather was like yesterday so a relative forecast ("It will be warmer than yesterday") would be more useful.
Pointy things that can take your eye out

I just stick my head out of the window and leave it there. |

A forecast with the weatherman hanging his head
outside a window, and just leaving it there, would be
entertaining, and probably more accurate as well. |

I remember watching the weather forecast one day whilst residing in Australia,the mapped television weather report for the day showed pointy things and bright yellow things. |
|
| |
I did not go out that day for fear of having my eye taken out or being blown up. |

Fine idea, but as with all temporally relative systems, it assumes the ongoing persistence of its client demographic. |
|

What if I just wasn't around yesterday? I'd need a "bed-in" period of at least 24 hours before being able to properly benefit from such a system. I'm all for that, and an extra day in bed would be most welcome indeed, and so for that [+]. |

"It's going to be nicer here than........." |
|
| |
Weather Underground does this (linked). |
|
| |
We also get "Last year on this date it was 72 degrees"...which we don't want to know when it's only 36 degrees today. |
|
| |
They already say things like "Sunny and warmer today"; plus, if you look at the weekly forecast it shows temperatures numerically, and the numbers can be compared to each other to see which ones are higher. |

Since I got a Moto Guzzi I divide my weather into "motorcycle" and "non-motorcycle". |
