As we speak, western Nebraska sucks. :cool:

That's pretty cool, Randy.

Well whichever it is, winds steady in mid-20's all day and gusting into the low
40's and even higher more inland.

2-D ?

meh. Let me know when it has an elevation slider.

That's memorizing. Will it automatically update or is it a snapshot (the actual wind vectors - not the moving dots)?

If it's frequently updated and I can get just the "movie" frame full-screen I've found my new TV image when we're not actually watching something.

Pretty nonetheless...

Beautiful, and a bit scary looking too.

Neat. Just learned today my bro-in-law lost a main sail while on his way to Key West. One line went and caused a bit of mishap. Tells me 9' to 15' swells and needs his sea legs... Motoring in.

it's frequently updated - not sure how close to real time - this weekend has a 1 day lag; they download forecast data and use that
