Wind, pressure and the sky from orbit
The map opens on the forecast: ECMWF’s wind drawn as moving particles over its gust field, with the pressure isobars every 4 hPa, hour by hour to the end of the model run — switch to GFS or ICON beside the timeline. The rail adds what was actually seen: GOES GeoColor every ten minutes, infrared beyond the GOES discs, radar where an open national mosaic exists (the US, Canada and Germany) and lightning. Every frame prints its own time, and a feed that stalls is held and says how old it is.
Full-disk stills
One picture each, not a loop: the newest whole-disc images NOAA’s STAR CDN has published from GOES-19. Each opens with the time the server stamped on it.
Stills: NOAA/NESDIS STAR, GOES-19 ABI and GLM (US public domain). Meteosat and Himawari publish no keyless still; those rows open their agencies’ own viewers.

Overview
The weather for any place, fifteen days ahead and back to 1940.
Windy is the weather console for anywhere you can name. Type a city or a US ZIP code, or let the browser say where you are, and the page reads Open-Meteo's forecast: current conditions, eleven instruments — wind, precipitation, cloud, sunrise and sunset, air quality, dew point, the moon, feels-like, humidity, UV and pressure — the next twenty-four hours, and up to fifteen days out. The moon's phase is worked out in the page, on the same arithmetic as The Moon; only its rise and set come down the wire.
The archive goes back to 1940. Pick a date and the console asks Open-Meteo's historical archive, built on the ERA5 reanalysis, for that calendar day in each past year — high, low, precipitation and peak wind — ten years first, then twenty-five, fifty and the whole run. The sky map draws ECMWF, GFS or ICON wind as moving particles over the gusts and isobars, beside GOES GeoColor, radar (US, Canada, Germany) and lightning, every frame stamped with its time. Under it sit NOAA's GOES-19 full-disk stills; Meteosat and Himawari publish none. The severe-weather wire gathers the National Hurricane Center's Atlantic and East Pacific feeds and The New York Times, read through this site's own feed proxy, and is re-read every ten minutes.
What it does not do is issue warnings. A headline is not a watch or a warning; for those, go to NOAA, the NHC or your local service, or read the NHC's own storm file in Hurricane. There is no account and no key. Forecast and archive come straight from Open-Meteo, through the site's own proxy only when a network blocks the direct call, and the console keeps just two things, in this browser: your temperature scale and any places you save.
