Cool. My last company, Environmental Resources Group, did a lot of air quality modeling for NOAA.

We once predicted that plume of photochemical smog would pass through the San Gabriel Mountains -- oh well.

Except for Dallas Raines on Channel 7 in LA he's my friend, former gym buddy, former neighbor, and he's got a degree in meteorology -- still full of shit, though. Sorry, Dallas.

I keep a global map with updating weather patterns (and the current location of the space station) on my desktop. In the bottom right corner I keep a local sat picture. Both are updated every 10 min. Here's a current view: http://hackforfood.com/desktop.png
