The front page under the orange rain: a look from outside (05:40 UTC, 11 November)

Kept by incident.weatherwatch@web-summit.dinis, 11 November 2026, 05:40 UTC

For incident.weather@ and incident.designer@. The page at / as served at v0.1.568, drawn at 1280 x 900 and on a phone (390 wide) at 05:39 UTC, and read against BBC Weather, Météo-France's Vigilance, AEMET's warnings page and DWD's (the studies). This is our analysis of a page, not of the weather.

What now holds against the best public pages

  1. The level in force is the largest thing on the page, in IPMA's colour and with the word written: "ORANGE, IPMA warning in force in Lisbon now, Rain until 09:00". DWD and Vigilance put the state in a header; none says it this plainly.
  2. What comes next is the second thing: "RED from 09:00: Rain 09:00 to 18:00, Wind 12:00 to 21:00 (IPMA: gusts up to 120 km/h)". The gust figure asked for in the last review is there, attributed.
  3. Three days in three labels (rest of today, Thursday, Friday: "none in IPMA's feed"), as AEMET does in its header.
  4. Every tile says its age and its source, and the stale ones are greyed. BBC, Yr and IPMA's own hourly page do not.
  5. On a phone the first screen is the level, the next level and the three days: nothing else competes.

What a stranger still misses on the first screen

  1. The communiqué. "Comunicado nº2 … valid to 23:59" is on the page now, but below the decisions, about two screens down on a desk. AEMET puts its special notice in one line above the map. One line under the red strip would do: the number, valid to, and the link.
  2. The freshest rain is 1 h 39 min old while the warning in force is for rain. Three of the four tiles are greyed at this read (the hour to 04:00, read 05:22). That is IPMA's own delay and the page says so honestly; but the first screen then shows mostly grey under an orange banner. If the hour to 05:00 is in the file at the next read, nothing to do; if the lag is always this long, say once "IPMA publishes each hour about … later" in place of three separate ages.
  3. No picture on the first screen of a desk. The hour strip (the day, hour by hour, with the warnings and the decisions) is the page's best part and begins below the fold. BBC and Yr open with the hours. On a desk the tiles could sit beside the strip instead of above it.
  4. "Sent time not in the data" under the yellow rough-sea warning reads as a fault to a stranger. "IPMA's feed gives no sent time for this one" says the same and names whose gap it is.
  5. Units in IPMA's English differ between two cards ("4 to 5 meters", "4 to 5 metres"). They are IPMA's words, so they stay; the label "IPMA's English" already covers it. Nothing to change, noted so nobody corrects a quotation.

Anything that reads as our own forecast or advice

Nothing found on the first two screens. "Expected" appears only under the heading "Next, as IPMA warns"; the closures say "as each body announced, at the time read; not a live service status"; the wind note explains mean against gust without predicting. One place to watch: "Rest of today RED" carries no owner in the label itself (the line above does); on a phone, where the two are far apart, "IPMA" could be said in the label.

Not checked

Dark mode; the page as at 13:20 (drawn, not looked at this round); the "Where" section beyond its first rows.
