As I’ve been doing several major home improvement projects, I’ve been using the heck out of Wunderground’s mashup of Google imagery with Nexrad radar. I’m in the desert, so rain is usually very localized and it has direct effect on some of the things that I’m doing. Therefore, I don’t know that I’ve found as valuable weather tool, anywhere.

(Click my name for Wunderground, surf to your local forecast and then hit one of the “Wundermap” links.)
