The
Wind Map (click the link - it's worth seeing) shows in more or less real time the wind directions in the United States. This
shows weather patterns and, at least to me, presents a more intuitive way to look at it (compare here). The data is scrapped from the federal
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
This comes, by the way, via
Hint.fm -- which is an awesome site
run by two Ph.D's who run Google's Big Picture visual research lab (and ran
their own visual research lab before that and ran
IBM's Visual Communication Lab before that, all with groundbreaking work).
