I've worked a lot with weather data in the past (and I still am), and I have to appreciate all the work that went into this. Weather model data is notoriously messy with many different formats and standards, and then I'm not even talking about radar data, etc. Probably when you've got this all abstracted away behind an API it is easier to build such a powerful application as this.
It is really cool. I don't think I've seen a weather app like it. Works great on Chrome + desktop. Great job. One small feature idea is showing the most hot and cold places at any one time. I love it!
Yea, and once you zoom out - being able to intuitively see the temperature all around the planet just creates this sense of appreciation for where we are. On top of it, one can't help but notice that we are floating nowhere in particular in this infinite and eternal universe ...

Never heard of freemediaheckyeah, I love it. I will have to add ours to the list. One thing that makes us different is we have a LOT more data in one app. If you explore all the layers, you can see tropical cyclone/hurricane data, lightning strikes, hail, renewable energy, and wildfire data. You have to change the focus (top left corner) to see the other collections of layers.

Sorry if this sounds harsh but this looks similar to commercial weather services in terms of the types of layers. How does this actually work?<p>Did you manage to track down their other services’ providers and negotiate access?
Xweather Live is an ad-free vector weather map built to showcase our weather APIs. It's a fun app with lots of data layers and features.<p>Feedback welcome!
Thanks. Mainly commenting to bookmark this for an aviation project I’m working on. Let me know if there’s anything that differentiates you - particularly for aviation. Thanks.
Out of curiosity, how long did this take to write and what AI stack did you use?
Very cool site! Would you know of any similar maps that explore climate zones or micro climates?
Beautiful, brings back memories of Dark Sky & forecast.io
Cool idea, but this took about 15 seconds to load for me and then lagged very hard, especially while zooming. So I wasn't able to use it very much before getting frustrated enough to exit the page.
Animating global weather patterns is super cool. It’s wild to see everything move around and ebb and flow. Neat site!
A PWA for mobile would be most welcome
Can someone explain how wind can spiral in to a point? Where does the air "go"? Or does this create a higher pressure?
It looks really cool, but all the numbers jiggle around when I pan the map on my phone (Android, Chrome)
Neat. Overlay city labels are doubled-up over map tile city labels?
really cool, but the search field doesn't update the map after I type in a new location. (safari Version 26.3 (21623.2.7.11.6))
