WeatherOnline!

http://www.weatheronline.com

This site is a good informational site for students to use in researching concepts in weather or as supplementary material for a weather unit. The main areas of this site are Tropical Weather, Local Weather, Expert Weather, Weather Tools, Weather Q & A, and Weatherboy Online. The two areas that would be most informative for students are the Local Weather and Weatherboy Online. The Local Weather allows students to get weather information from any area in the US. The information includes 4 day forecasts, satellite images, precipitation and radar images. Also there is an area called Dr. Dewpoint, where questions can be answered. Weather boy is an animated character that explains concepts of weather and the how's and why's of weather.
