Search now.

Want to see the temperatures all over Europe at once? Try out the Wunderground weather website. This handy map website for world weather even lets you animate weather plots so you can watch trends.

Choose Asia, USA, Canada, South America, Australia and even Antarctica if you please.

This great weather web site provides real time animated maps of recent temperatures over a geographic area of your choice.

If you want to dig a little deeper, you can also get wind field (that is speed and direction) maps, dewpoint maps, as well as visibility, satellite pics and a recent jet stream analysis from Wunderground Weather.

The maps help greatly in tracking storms and large features as they drift across the landscape. They work better than standard meteorological maps in some ways because they appear for each hour rather than every six hours.

The site will also supply an underground weather report for your location. Go ahead and give it a go.

The Weather Underground Organization

It's a commercial site, which gives free weather data and forecasts. That means Wunderground Weather gets its support from targeted on-screen advertisements.

What started out as an American university project became a successful business website.

It loosely gets its title from a crazy group of militant college students in the early 1970's, who derived the name "Weatherman", originally, from a line in a Bob Dylan song. It was Subterranean Homesick Blues, one of his most famous songs.

Their logo:

and their cute little favicon form an important part of any website's image. What's a favicon? The small logo to the left of the white address bar which says http://www.wunderground.com/
