Share your weather links here

I have a couple on my links bar and a few bookmarks. I quit using weather.com when they switched their maps to the microsoft map system awhile back which I found slow and buggy.

This is a link to the SoFlorida Water Mgt hurricane models page. It isn't always active when there are no storms. But today, if you click on "Storm 92" it brings up the models for the invest that just came off the coast of Africa. It often shows more of the models than Weather Underground.

I like the forums at Storm2K- Signal to noise can be rather high sometimes, but there are some posters who really know thier stuff:

For a non-continental US perspective, Caribbean Hurricane Network- interesting reading on storms that might eventually be heading our way

Don't know if anyone's listed this one yet or not..but just discovered http://www.stormpulse.com/hurricane-ike-2008. Really cool site for hurricane tracking. Make sure you have the boxes checked to yes in the upper right hand corner.
