Abstract :
We report our current work on Pythonissa, a visual language tailored to graphically describe weather forecast bulletins. The internal representation of a bulletin is a sequence of graphs and visual sentences are therefore represented as graph transformations. Pythonissa is being implemented as part of a more generic framework, based on the well-known visualization software Vis5D and using the scripting language Python
