That is a thing of beauty.  Do we know what data they are using?

That is beautiful!

It's like my brother at summer camp building a bird house in wood shop only to see the kid next to him was building a guitar. I scrape weather data just to pinpoint some very particular forecasts and output them in single place, mobile friendly and it's handy. But now I feel like I just looked over at the kid who built the guitar!
