WEATHER ON THE INTERNET
You can look at satellite images of any place in the world via the Internet. The Space Science and Engineering Center in Madison Wisconsin has a great Real-time Satellite Image site where you can chose between images of North and South America, Europe and Africa, or Asia and Australia. You can also view animated satellite images of these same locations.
You can get weather forecasts for anywhere in the United States from the National Weather Service where meteorologists monitor and forecast the weather 24 hours a day every day of the year. The National Weather Service (NWS) also keeps climate records for most locations so if you want to see how your forecast turned out just find the nearest NWS web page and check their data for the dates you were looking at.
