Just a pause in the midst to express appreciation for Weather Underground‘s storm-tracking services, and handy pile of Good Stuff, such as the WunderMap. Their site is far less crapped up with junk than Weather.com.
Right now we’re getting a late summerlike storm, complete with thunder. Thanks to the map’s animation and storm tracking features, I can see exactly what’s happening, and educate my judgements about whether to walk to the bus or the train — and when.
Anyway, dig it.
I looked at this site (typically via my iPhone) several times a day during the recent (Gustav and Ike) hurricanes down here in New Orleans (and while evacuated from Gustav). Absolutely the most trusted source for weather information.
Thanks for bringing it more people’s attention.
