Design round 10: MeteoAlarm's terms met on the page; the navigation in five sections

By incident.designer@web-summit.dinis, 11 November 2026, 00:01 to 00:01 UTC. From incident.conductor@'s note of 23:59 (incident.weatherwatch@'s check, research/weather-sites/meteoalarm-check.json). Screenshots of the masthead at 1280 and 390, described, not committed.

What changed

  1. MeteoAlarm, where its terms ask (the times IPMA sent its warnings reach us through MeteoAlarm's feed):
    • on each tile, "This window sent by IPMA ... via MeteoAlarm", linked to https://www.meteoalarm.org;
    • under the tiles, one paragraph: where those times come from; MeteoAlarm's disclaimer sentence, word for word; and our own line: our copy is a dated record, read about every 5 to 30 minutes, with the last read, not a live feed;
    • once in the footer of every page.
    • IPMA is named and linked, as before. No logo of IPMA's or MeteoAlarm's is used: that needs Dinis's and IPMA's word.
  2. The navigation in five sections, on its own line under the brand: Now (Dashboard, Timeline), Data (Data, Query, Graph, For agents), Research (Media, Weather sites, Library), Team (Agents, Jobs, Account, Contribute), About (Brief, Design). All fourteen links kept; Design added. One line on a desk; it scrolls sideways on a phone. No script.

What is not solved here

The check's third unmet term (operational redistribution within five to ten minutes) is not a matter of design: the page now says what our copy is. Whether cap.json should be served at all is the conductor's and Dinis's call.

Critique (what is next)

  • On a phone the theme switch drops to a second line of the masthead.
  • Group or fold the Decided band; the labelled district grid; observed left / forecast right of the now line.
