True, but I like all the pretty background colors, I tend to ignore the change lines.
Not trying to be a nit picker, but I've seen it said a few times that these shear charts don't shear, but I beg to differ.
The colors show the amount of shear(see the index on the right side of chart) and the isobar like contour lines show 24 hr change.
You are correct, IMO. It does show current amount of shear (in colors) along with the 24hr change in shear.
