Each year, more than 2.6-billion pairs of eyes check in for guidance in Australia on the government's Bureau of Meteorology website.

Lately, however, visitors to the "Bom," as it is nicknamed, have been declaring the site's redesign a "bomb." In a recent report carried by BBC News, users have weighed in publicly on the re-do, calling it everything from counterintuitive to an outright disaster.

The remake, which cost 96.5 million in Australian dollars, was the bureau's response to a 2015 cybersecurity breach.

A number of users became instant fans and praised the site for its cleaner front page. The bureau has even provided guidelines designed to help visitors navigate the site.

The BBC report said, however, that the majority of vocal visitors to the site have been clamouring for the bureau to roll it back to the old version or simply make it more user-friendly, with farmers in particular unable to find their location relevant weather as they could previously.

Worse for users is that the colour coding on the RADAR maps has changed!

Many users now are putting the letters REG at the beginning of the url which then reverts them to the original site.

Looks like stormy weather ahead for the Bom, at least for the immediate future.
