Here are some with an explanation on why each would be a good addition to the forum.

1) http://www.wunderground.com/maps/
This map shows current placements of where cold fronts/low pressures are at. Useful when you want to know how much longer you have until a cold front is through, or where exactly that all important low pressure is located.

2) http://www.livewxradar.com/
There are two radars here. They both stream live (whereas our current radar just is a still frame, those two are able to show the precip in the past to tell you where the precip may just be going)

These are just two I found. If someone can find any better maps that show the same things as these two do, then I'm all for it.

Is there an HPC link on here?? If not, here is the link: http://www.hpc.ncep.noaa.gov/

A very useful page put up and maintained by the NWS that shows how much rainfall/snowfall there could be up to 5 days away, potential hazards highlighted, probability maps that show how good of a chance there is of recieving x amount of snow/rain in a given day, surface analysis, and more.

Added a link to the CFS weekly climate anomalies page.

Added a link to Robert's new website.

Added links to Don Sutherland's snow museum and weather resources. Some really good stuff in there worth checking out.

Don't know if this one has been added or not. And you can also sign up for it. Seems pretty good to me. http://www.emergencyemail.org/weather-forecast-by-zip-code.asp?st=TN popcorn
