Favorite weather sites?
I thought it would be interesting, seeing some paid weather spam on
the groups, today, to share a few of my favorite weather sites. Post yours and we'll all benefit with more data from more sites..... Marine Weather Fax from Germany http://www.hffax.de/ Excellent tropical weather from Plymouth State College's Meteorology Department. One of my favorite weather sites http://vortex.plymouth.edu/ Extensive weather site from Intellicast, where the broadcasters get their weather data. http://www.intellicast.com/ (Use Webwasher from www.webwasher.com to filter out the spam on all websites) National offshore Data Bouy Center http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/rmd.shtml Click on the region boxes then click on the bouy you want to see. Australian Bureau of Meterology source http://www.bom.gov.au/weather/national/ We can all dream of needing this data, can't we? Storm surge and Tides for anyplace http://storms.nos.noaa.gov/ Excellent Hurricane in formation website. Very current, always, as a fanatic runs it. http://www.hurricanes98.com/ Excellent quick composite picture of the current radar and GOES-E overlaid. Very fast updates. http://www.goes.noaa.gov/ECIR4.html I suppose you can find West from www.goes.noaa.gov up the chain from here. Direct link to the NOAA weather fax server's complete list of fax products, without all the hype and spam. You'll need the product number to get there fast as they are listed by the number in the filenames. Every NOAA weather fax product is on this site, instantly. ftp://weather.noaa.gov/fax/ If you use an FTP client like FTP Commander, you can download them all automatically, continuously. Near Realtime Geologic hazards from USGS, direct. Earthquake reporting in seconds.... http://geohazards.cr.usgs.gov/ Instant Earthquake data directly is on: http://wwwneic.cr.usgs.gov/neis/bulletin/bulletin.html Colorado had an earthquake at 11:02 this morning and noone said a word on TV..... NWS - Hydrometeorological Prediction Center http://www.hpc.ncep.noaa.gov/ University of Hawaii - Dept of Meteorology's great weather department servers. All the US and tropical data across the planet. Very well organized http://lumahai.soest.hawaii.edu/cgi-bin/uhmetintro.cgi NOAA IWINS graphical weather for broadbanders http://iwin.nws.noaa.gov/iwin/graphi.../rbigmain.html Self updating every 5 minutes. Just leave it run 24/7 and you'll have more weather than anyone else....for free. Shameless plug for one of the best depts in the US Navy http://www.npmoc.navy.mil/jtwc.html Anyone cruising WESTPAC needs this website's data The taxpayers paid for the national lightning detection system, but you usually have to PAY someone to look at its data. Lightningstorm lets us taxpayers look for free at data 30 minutes old, once every 30 minutes so they can sell us our data in realtime. Why is a mystery, same as NEXRAD was until someone raised holy hell. Look at the bottom of: http://www.lightningstorm.com/ The address is a web bug so it changes with every picture. Don't store it or you'll get the old picture. Play the spam game, first. NWS Ocean Prediction Center - Ocean Weather http://www.mpc.ncep.noaa.gov/ NAVLANTMETOCCEN Norfolk - Don'tcha just love Navy Acronyms?! http://www.nlmoc.navy.mil/home1.shtml NWS - Marine and Coastal Weather Service.....lots of pages http://www.nws.noaa.gov/om/marine/home.htm All NWS websites seem very slow to respond, sometimes. Severe Weather and Flash Flood Warnings within 2 minutes of issue, nationwide! Not sure where cod.edu is but thanks to them for this automated server. http://kamala.cod.edu/svr/ All our weather comes from the sun. If you've never visited the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory's website and seen the fantastic live pictures of our sun, do spend a lot of time looking at this website. Run the movies. After watching billions of tons per second blasting off the sun towards us, someone tell me once again how my car air conditioner running on R-12 freon is trashing the earth's atmosphere....(sigh). We don't live in a non-replaceable bubble. Look at the movies and listen to the lies.... http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/ Latest Images - direct http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/data/...me-images.html Space Weather...same idea http://www.sec.noaa.gov/index.html http://www.spaceweather.com/ Unisys Weather - One of the finest sites on the net http://weather.unisys.com/index.html USCG marinefax maps, right off the servers.... http://www.hffax.de/Marinefax/USCG_Maps/uscg_maps.html Meteo France Bouy site http://www.meteo.shom.fr/ WestPac Navy Weather from Yokosuka METOC station https://207.133.112.37/html/ No, it's not a secret site, just a little paranoid. Click ACCEPT on the secure socket layer warning. The WestPac weather is great here. Now a little data from my little corner of Paradise, Charleston, 3200 miles of navigable waterways within 50 miles of home. WCSC TV Doppler 5000 current radar image - without the spam...(c; http://www2.wcsc.com/camimages/doppl2-l.jpg If you bring up your local TV station's radar picture, right click on the radar picture and copy the source address, you can look at JUST THE IMAGE if you access IT, not the spam-soaked webpage, then save it to your favorites. Click refresh as often as you like and you'll see the picture update when an update comes in. Opera users may do what I do and tell Opera browser to automatically reload the image every minute or so then run this window in background. Non-Opera users need to buy Opera, the finest multiwindow, multitasking web browser on Earth. www.opera.com Here's the direct image from WIS TV 10 in Columbia, SC http://www.wis-tv.com/dopimg.jpg Here's Channel 4's direct radar image from Miami http://www.wfor.com/images/new_radar09.jpg Surfcam on Folly Beach at Charleston....daytime, of course http://www.follysurfcam.com/ Isle of Palms, SC, Weather, live info http://iopweather.com/ Looks like old TV weather station circa 1960 Jammercam from the beachfront, Isle of Palms, Windjammer Lounge cameras inside and outside. Great way to look out at the ocean from our beach. http://65.194.192.196/ Look for the wife (or husband, if applicable) on the Club Cam. Who's that guy she's sitting with laughing?!! Damn! I live right across the Ashley River, one of the two rivers that come together in Charleston Harbor to form the Atlantic Ocean, from hysteric Magnolia Gardens and Plantation, a beautiful tourist trap whos massive flower gardens provide heavenly smells wafting through my bedroom window fan at night. MagGardens has a great webcam overlooking a bridge on its nature walk nearly across from the house. I use it to see what the weather is at home when there's rain in the area and I'm at Circuit City playing on their internet. http://www.magnoliaplantation.com/ http://66.49.116.214/ is the cam, itself. I was born and raised near Syracuse, NY, so like to watch the snowstorms in Winter on the newspaper's cams, including this live video source: http://www.syracuse.com/clintoncam/index.ssf/video.ssf Well, share your resources, too. I'm sure others will appreciate it as much as I do......(c; Larry Extremely intelligent life must exist in the universe. You can tell because they never tried to contact us. |

Larry-Great idea!
This is my favorite site during hurricane season; brings up the graphic showing a tropical storm or hurricane predicted track with the area of uncertainty plotted. http://www.nhc.noaa.gov/tcmaps.shtml 73 Charlie |
