This is not only convenient but allows you to track weather events such as cold fronts and hurricanes from a single web page.
In addition, in the right column is a very useful widget. It is a trip planner...yesteryear's weather at a glance.This widget lets you check historic weather for your trip dates.

The Tropical Weather Outlook
For the North Atlantic...Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico:
1. Tropical wave in the central tropical Atlantic extends along 35W from 5N-15N moving W at 5-10 kt over the past 24 hours. Total precipitable water vapory imagery shows the wave embedded in a surge of deep moisture. Scattered moderate convection is from 7N- 10N between 36W-38W.
2.Tropical wave in the W tropical Atlantic extends along 55W S of 12N to inland over South America near 6N moving W-NW near 15 KT over the past 24 hours. Total precipitable water vapory imagery shows the wave at the leading edge of a low amplitude surge of deep moisture. Clusters of scattered moderate convection are from 6N- 10N between 50W-57W being enhanced by a cutoff upper low just NW of the wave.
3.Tropical wave in the SW Caribbean is along the coast of Nicaragua extending along 83W S of 16N to across Costa Rica moving W at 15-20 kt over the past 24 hours. Total precipitable water vapor imagery shows the wave embedded within a broad area of deep moisture that covers the entire SW Caribbean. Wave is beneath an upper ridge enhancing the scattered moderate/strong convection from 12N-18N between 80W-84W.
4. Synopsis...a trough on the northern portion of a tropical wave moving into Nicaragua will move over the NW Caribbean and into the Yucatan Peninsula tonight. A second tropical wave currently passing W of 55W will move through the Windward Islands tonight...across the E Caribbean through Thu...and the central Caribbean Fri and Sat. A third tropical wave will pass 55W Thu...approach the Windward Islands late Fri...and enter the E Caribbean Sat.
6.Tropical cyclone formation is not expected in the next 24 to 48 hours.
7. The Saharan Air Layer (SAL) remains moderately large in area and high in density.
