Sources of Symbols

Weather

(Important Note: I have only uploaded the glyphs I have used in practice sentences and sample constructions. Therefore, not every glyph indicated on these "source" pages is available on my website at the moment. Instead, you'll probably see a lot of these little guys, , indicating that the image can't be loaded.)

The weatherlady has a ton of symbols that she slides around her maps.

It's interesting to see that a lot of the traditional weather symbols are common typographic symbols (such as ** § ,, =), probably because the primitive computer-generated weather maps of long ago had limited graphic capabilities, so they had to stick to pre-programmed shapes.
