Really cool dynamic wind graphic! See the Wind
Not necessarily information about airstrips or airports, but more general info about a greater area or a route of flight.
I came across this really cool dynamic wind graphic!
It shows the moving wind patterns.
You can also click the mouse on your location and get coordinates, current wind, and direction.
It is completely scalable, and you can zoom and position the view anywhere over the earth.
What do you think?...cool or not cool ... Hats off to the folks who put this together .

Very cool! It seems similar to Windyty which has more topo information as well as overlay options with forecasting:

I really like this one:
https://windria.net/jacksonville-orIt displays forecasted winds and gusts, as well as waves, currents, etc. Fascinating stuff!
