simon,
in svg the community could also have added enhancements such as
perhaps weather fronts.
in jpg and jscript this would not have been possible....

Whilst not suggesting SVG as a practical way of delivering this, I
did wonder why it was in flash since it appears to use no
functionality that flash brings that js does not (unless there's a
socket updating the views for the people who leave it open in a tab
over some period of time).
But then I figured it's a beta and there's probably functionality
still to come (video is listed as not yet available).
The contrast is a fair point, you can't tab around inside it either
so it's mouse only too. Perhaps accessibility is to come later also.

good as it is, such a pity it's not SVG...
how about if I need or prefer a higher contrast?
