Well when used correctly (Rob McElwee Forecasts) i think the graphics are alot better than th eold ones, such as nice smooth frontal movements etc, when they are used properly they allow you to understand it better, backed up with a good explaination of whats going on. I think that some of the forecasters rely on the graphics to tell the story, whereas Rob explains in detail and talks through - Hes (in my opinion) the best forecaster on the BBC. <_<
