I like to use this for finding a LLCC in the formative stage of TC development. It has other uses too. http://manati.orbit.nesdis.noaa.gov/quikscat/ These maps display the ocean surface winds at a 10m height from satellite passes as processed by NOAA/NESDIS, from near real-time data collected by NASA/JPL's SeaWinds Scatterometer aboard the QuikSCAT satelite.

Wind speed and Queensland building codesThere have been a few questions about what rating means what so i did a bit of homework and came up with the following information: Qld timber framing wind speeds C = Cyclone area. On or above the tropic of Capricorn N = Non Cyclone area. Below the Tropic of Capricorn C1 50 meters per sec = 150KPH C2 61 metres per sec = 219 KPH C3 74 metres per sec = 266KPH N1 34 meters per sec = 122KPH N2 40 meters per sec = 144KPH N3 50 meters per sec = 150KPH N4 61 meters per sec = 219KPH

Here is a good one - GFS 180 hr forecast of Global Precipitable Column Water:
http://www.coaps.fsu.edu/~maue/extreme/gfs/current/plan_water.html
Jack up the speed control to get a really neat flowing animation!

This is a great site to track the progression of the MJO using the Multivariate MJO Index. This includes phase diagrams, time-longitude plots etc. http://www.bom.gov.au/bmrc/clfor/cfstaff/matw/maproom/RMM/index.htm A lot of people probably already know about this site but for those who don't this is great.

A site that provides a few more options for the standard BOM radar images. I like the ability to "save" the image set. http://www.radar.strikeone.net.au/

Hey guys, Another member here introduced me to this site, which has a beautiful selection of satellite imagery in and around Australia: http://realtime2.bsch.au.com/vis_sat.html But something weird happened, and it stopped updating on 09 January.  Can anyone recommend another site like this, that has so many high-res, close-up, regional shots of the tropical waters around Australia? I'd be deeply obliged. Thanks!
