I learned about a useful website for weather information from reading the Feb. 17, 2010, issue of “American Libraries Direct.” The site is located at http://www.wunderground.com/auto/wxmap/.
As stated in the “American Libraries Direct” issue, the “site gives you a full screen Google Maps display and overlays it with current weather reports from the over 16,000 personal weather stations that report data to the service.”
After you type in your location, there are links to the “Detailed Forecast” and the “Weather Underground” on the lower left side. Click on those links to find a wealth of weather-related information for your location. For example, there are 161 NOAA weather radios available.
