I Heart WeatherSpark

Accuweather has always been my go-to weather site. I know some people swear by The Weather Channel, but those people are just odd. They keep calling this snow and cold situation Hercules even though nobody names snowstorms. Why? Because storms with names get more hits, and if they’re the only site calling it Hercules . . . Plus have you seen some of the links on that site? Do not get me started. Where was I? Oh, right, Accuweather has always been my go-to place for forecasts. But since I’ve been coping with the cold in a house with no furnace, I’ve gotten obsessive about checking EVERYWHERE: Accuweather, Wunderground, even The Weather Channel . . . and then I found WeatherSpark and stopped dating around. From now on, it’s me and WeatherSpark 4Ever.

WeatherSpark gives you the whole deal in one graph. No clicking through links, you just slide the chart back and forth to see where you’re going and where you’ve been. It’s simple and elegant and beautiful and I love it and you should all go check out WeatherSpark if you’re obsessing about how the weather is going to possibly make your life hell in the days to come.

And then just for a little weather zen, go look at the Wind Map again. It’s the visual equivalent of yoga music.

WeatherSpark and the Wind Map. That’s all the meteorology you really need.
