1. That's cool!

I wish they had the rest of North America. I love to see where that big trough going into Canada goes.

2. If the map is missing, we recommend the latest Chrome browser

I hate it when they force you to use a specific browser.

5. It's working fine on Firefox

I only hate it when it will only work on Internet Exploder.

However, yeah, this is neat. I suppose there will be east winds whistling through the canyons tonight as the colder air drops south along the Rockies.

8. I recently had to reinstall IE to fill out some financial forms.

Love my Firefox.

[liberal N proud]

9. Works on my Android tablet

[On the Road]

30. The New IE 9 is Actually Not Bad at All

My employer forces use of IE, but with the new version I have no complaints versus Chrome.

[Warpy]

31. They'll have to pry my Firefox

from my cold, dead computer.

I can't imagine trying to use IE now. I'm not even all that fond of Chrome, the bookmarks aren't as user friendly.

6. Infinite source of solar energy transformed

into kinetic energy. Why are we still killing the planet by exploiting fossil fuels?
Thanks for posting, Xipe!

16. You can't...

put wind or solar in a barrel and sell it.

[Yavapai]

25. If the power companies could put a meter on the sun,

we would have had solar power in the 1950's.

27. With the way big business...

writes more and more legislation, it is only a matter of time before someone writes a law saying you can only lease solar panels and turbines. Once they get something like this passed, they can build their monopoly.

11. Looks like Knoxville is sitting in the doledrums.

Is that true?

[Grey]

13. I really like that you can hover over any spot on the map and it will give you the mph.

[BetsysGhost]

17. thanks! going on my weather bookmarks

[Arctic Dave]

18. LOL, I read it as Cool Whip map.

[dixiegrrrrl]

19. The vortex of Isacc is very evident in today's map,

and shows why it is still so damn hot down here, the storm is sucking up hot air from the Gulf, still.

[tclambert]

20. They put that together every day?

[Xipe Totec]

33. Yes. Amazing, isn't it?

[Demoiselle]

21. Look at that wind blowing north to Canada !

Everything seems to converge and head through North Dakota on the Great Plains...from the Rockies and from the Appalachians as well...except, of course for the whirligig that Isaac is spinning.
That may well be the best map I've ever seen...Thanks!
I was born in North Dakota, my parents both grew up in the state, and I can remember my mother saying that she couldn't remember a moment when the wind wasn't blowing...audibly.
Now I can see why.

26. North Texas seems to be the best place for a wind turbine

Either that or the south-east corner of Illinois

[Mister K]
