The frustrating thing about things like a storm is that Stav Danos at the end of the Ten said 'stayed tuned to the forecast'. What is the point when the web bulletin is updated around 11pm and never again until breakfast and the TV version is a pre-record on the news channel.

We know there is an overnight weather presenter because they were tweeting periodically (though perhaps not as much as you expect) but why can't they take the time to insert additional live broadcasts even if the channel is international. The Met Office are just as bad, no recorded information through the night.

Were there any developments missed? They broadly know what the weather will do and forecast accordingly. What difference would additional live bulletins have made apart from “yep, still windy”?

Not being facetious, I just think sometimes we think we need something that we don’t actually need or would use.
