Here’s a bunch of websites that I use to make my forecasts and such. Every website listed here is completely free to use. I don’t know how much Ads are on what sites because I use Adblock Plus (you pretty much have to to make Wunderground usable). Without further ado, here goes.
Stuff to Nowcast
- Current MU Weather + webcam
- GOES-EAST via NASA’s Earth Science Office
- NexSat from the Naval Research Lab (NRL)
- RAP Real-Time Weather (Radar/Sat/Models/Upper Air/more)
- Central PA Radar at Wunderground with the settings I use
- AccuWeather Winter Mosaic – PA Large-sized Loop
- StrikeStarUS – FREE lightning data (Note: this is a composite of personal lightning detectors across the US in which coverage varies)
Models
