I have seen many good weather sites bite the dust over the past 20 years or so, it is really sad. It is even sadder to see that NWS and NOAA have bowed to that pressure as well. There are many companies out there that make billions of dollars a year on weather forecasts, even though all of the data everyone uses is freely available from NOAA. These companies will do anything to milk that golden cow as long as they possibly can, and that has directly led to the closing of many great weather websites, most notably Intelicast. IBM was directly responsible for that one! I would bet money that you can follow all the trail of bread crumbs back to lobbyist money in Washing D.C. That same weather map is used by Google and many web sites to generate their radar maps. It is complete crap! After many years of searching after the demise of Intellicast, the best radar maps that I have been able to find are available on https://eldoradoweather.com. These maps are not perfect, but they are much better than that Google crap! I find the Dark maps the most effective for me, but the storm tracker maps seem to be the most accurate.
