The weatherman is designed as a grumpy but professional type of character, much like some of the familiar "uncle personalities" that we (as Singaporeans) are familiar with in our previous experiences. He may very well remind some of us of  the silently judging janitor back during our primary school days, or the grumpy looking uncle drinking kopi-oh (black coffee) at the void deck kopitiam (coffee shop) on a lazy afternoon.

We also try to play around with various types of artistic liberties by making the hero of our animation a somewhat unlikely and reluctant one. Through the brainstorming of the type of person who could be professional and reliable enough to manage such an important job that looks after an entire town, we deduced that it should very well fall onto the shoulders of an experienced and wise person. In order to make things more difficult for our protagonist, more than just physical limitations, we decided to give him a grumpy personality as a flaw which helped to solidify the direction of our animation.
