The decision graph (Storm Charles)

A layout preview, in the newsroom: the picture the weather desk's page would carry, drawn from the desk's own file, desks/weather-vicky/decision-graph.json, as the desk last wrote it. It is not the public page and adds nothing of its own: the public page is the desk's proposal and waits for Vicky's or Dinis's word.

Each box is a decision-maker. A filled box with a tick has happened (announced by the decision-maker, read at source). A dashed outline is expected, which is the desk's analysis with its reasons, never a fact. A hollow dashed box is not announced yet, and a grey box with a question mark is a source the desk cannot read. A line means "this usually follows that". Tap a box for what was decided, when, the source and when it was read; tap a line for its lead time and evidence. Times are UTC, which is Lisbon time on these dates.
