Very cool Wind map!

Take'm to the Wilderness, introduce them to the wonders of God's creation. They will be better for it.

Can't dispute the accuracy of this link. As soon as it came up gusts of wind started hitting me in the face from out of the monitor! I know this is not original but a friend that passed away a couple of years ago was a 30+ year veteran of the BW and he would always say the wind blows from 5 directions up there. There's North, South, East and West and in your freaking face. Very cool link. I forgot to notice can it predict wind from a week out or so?


May waters rise to meet you. May wind and current be always at your back. May the Good Lord paddle with you, And may yours be the lightest pack.

Wind doesn't blow- it sucks.

That map is really pretty. I find it odd that you cannot really makeout out Rockies. You think they would be really obvious/disruptive. There is that tight swirl in OK area, looks fun.
