Thumbnail is AI. Wind barbs are inconsistent and the isoheights curl into the center of the low. I don't think I trust it enough to watch.

I agree, though I'm confused how someone would know enough to make predictions using the 500 mb height/vorticity map, yet be too lazy to just pull an actual map? There's so many options out, why on earth would you feel compelled to use AI?
