New Radar Palette

The new palette is the version with the lighter blues for Snow precip, and has less yellow for Rain.

We are making radar improvements on Weather Underground. After testing and listening to our users, a large complaint was that our radar made the storm appear stronger than it is, and the snow palette was counter-intuitive. For the past few months I've been working on improving the product, and here's the first stage! You can see the difference in this animation, the radar is now more visible on this basemap.

Stay tuned for more of our radar improvements that I helped design!
