Excluding the big ones like TWC, AccuWeather, and Weather Underground, can anyone recommend some good weather websites? Thanks!
-
There's one I just happen to stumble upon last year called MyWeather.com. Check it: http://www.myweather.com/ (http://www.myweather.com/)

http://www.weather.gov/ (http://www.weather.gov), which is the National Weather Service's site, is a great site with a lot of weather information. Just click on the area of the U.S. map where you live, and it will take you to your local NWS office webpage, and features many forecasts, forecast discussions, etc.

http://www.intellicast.com/ (http://www.intellicast.com/) is a very good one to try. It has a large variety of weather maps, forecasts, and weather for all over the world. It also has weather for health, travel, and community.

I like it! It's not as "pretty" as the more commonly-visited websites, but it has a lot of great information in an easy-to-use format.

Matt, I've moved this topic here to the weather section. If you're looking to just get a forecast, the main ones have already been stated above. However, if you want to see more information like the models, radar, satellite, and so forth, I would check out some sites mentioned in the Weather Models topic pinned in this board.

No, I'm not just looking for a forecast (I get that from my local NBC station). I'm looking for cool and informative maps, radar, and satellite images for a sister site to TWCC.

Mike's Weather page (http://www.mikesweatherpage.com/) and Race Day Forecast (http://www.racedayforecast.com/) are the 2 weather sites i use for Nascar and Local updates for Providence and Boston.

In that case, try these links that I have used for various weather data:
College of DuPage Weather: http://weather.cod.edu/satrad/ (http://weather.cod.edu/satrad/)
(I gave you the page with their radar and satellite data that you can access from the left menu, but you can click on the "Weather Analysis Tools" to find more weather information.)
National Center for Atmospheric Research: http://weather.rap.ucar.edu/ (http://weather.rap.ucar.edu/)
(It's really well-labeled and allows you to pick zoomed-in locations for various things.)
NWS Radar Mosaic: http://radar.weather.gov/Conus/ (http://radar.weather.gov/Conus/)
(There's an option to bring up a huge looping national radar map.)
Weather Prediction Center (formerly HPC): http://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/ (http://www.wpc.ncep.noaa.gov/)
(Check out the surface analysis, forecast, and precipitation maps.)
NOAA GOES Page: http://www.goes.noaa.gov/ (http://www.goes.noaa.gov/)
(You can pick among the various regions on the left menu to zoom in and run various satellite loops.)
Hope these links help you! B)
