This is a HONKIN' big storm!



And by early tomorrow it's gonna HAMMER our friends in Newfoundland... We have about 6 inches of snow here on Cape Cod, and the winds are at gale force if not higher...

If you don't know about the earth wind map, here's where to find it. Here's the projection I screen capped above.

That's an excellent link, esp for boater types. Thanks Robert!

That's the prettiest bad weather map I've ever seen.

If you haven't already, click on the "EARTH" typography and explore the options. You can chart the winds at different heights, and you can go back in history or forward in projection, and some other fun stuff as well.

Looks like a mean one. Winter has yet to loosen its grip on the Northern Hemisphere! Here in NA's midsection, it has just been cold. Really cold. I am *so* ready for Spring, LOL.

Robert, many thanks for the link. Bookmarked! Incredibly useful.
I immediately recognized the style of the graphical display of wind speed. I went looking in the about page and found that indeed, this page, which I have been using for a year or so, was what inspired the graphical representation.

Note that this can be used also for ocean currents, switch from air to ocean mode, watch the gulf stream :-)

Just glad that it's bypassing me in Central New York state this time around. Winter has been long and brutal. No signs of Spring here.
