A number of posts refer to sites that show weather.
This one is very useful if you live in the southeast (i.e. Florida). Once you learn to read it, you can predict seeing conditions with a whole lot more accuracy than with info from most any other site.
Besides, it's neat to watch hurricanes go into the Gulf

A small scope that gets used often is a better investment than a big scope that stays in the closet.

Here's a good one when it's cloudy where you are. Use their scope for free.
