Pattern Altitude
This site has a pretty cool depiction of wind. Geared toward the wind power guys, but neat anyway.

Bonus points to whomever takes this and overlays a current prog chat showing the weather fronts. Combined, that would be a great tool to demonstrate how fronts push the wind around and visualize a standard prog chart.

Tied Down
As someone pointed out in the other thread about this, showing the wind at different altitudes would make it far more useful to us aviators. (Also good for that frontal system overlay training.)
Nifty toy. But kinda stops at that for us.
Masterful marketing for the wind generation folk who paid to have it made. It's been making the rounds on the Net for a couple weeks now and it must capture the imagination because it didn't die out after the first round of "check this outs".
That's always a sign something is nifty or significantly different than the norm. You keep getting it forwarded to you for years.

I guess they extrapolate to get the images; there are not stations at all the places there are lines. Very cool.

This is a neat one, look at the ccw flow NW of Dallas.
And 400 S of Chicago, there is outflow from a point in all directions, and on the east side it is blocking vigorous southerly flow from penetration. Scott needs to chime in here.
