Xweather Live – Interactive global vector weather map

It is really cool. I don't think I've seen a weather app like it. Works great on Chrome + desktop. Great job. One small feature idea is showing the most hot and cold places at any one time. I love it!

Never heard of freemediaheckyeah, I love it. I will have to add ours to the list. One thing that makes us different is we have a LOT more data in one app. If you explore all the layers, you can see tropical cyclone/hurricane data, lightning strikes, hail, renewable energy, and wildfire data. You have to change the focus (top left corner) to see the other collections of layers.

		This is admittedly quite niche (as I work on a balloon experiment) but I really appreciate how the nullschool map shows the 10 mbar level (5-7 would be even better if course)

Xweather Live is an ad-free vector weather map built to showcase our weather APIs. It's a fun app with lots of data layers and features.

Feedback welcome!

Thanks. Mainly commenting to bookmark this for an aviation project I’m working on. Let me know if there’s anything that differentiates you - particularly for aviation. Thanks.

Out of curiosity, how long did this take to write and what AI stack did you use?

Very cool site! Would you know of any similar maps that explore climate zones or micro climates?

Thanks. There are quite a few cool projects out there. Someone just shared a link to a collection of free weather maps: https://fmhy.pages.dev/misc#climate-weather

In the future we will also be merging another project into this app which is a collection of data from personal weather stations across the country. That data is really cool because it can fill in coverage gap. https://www.pwsweather.com/map/?ob=temps

Cool idea, but this took about 15 seconds to load for me and then lagged very hard, especially while zooming. So I wasn't able to use it very much before getting frustrated enough to exit the page.

Beautiful, brings back memories of Dark Sky & forecast.io

Animating global weather patterns is super cool. It’s wild to see everything move around and ebb and flow. Neat site!

A PWA for mobile would be most welcome

		I love PWAs these days. They’re very polished now. A few of my projects I’m going that direction. Second this.

Can someone explain how wind can spiral in to a point? Where does the air "go"? Or does this create a higher pressure?

	▲	pulvinar 3 hours ago \| parent [-]
		If it’s showing surface winds, it goes up. On windy.com there’s an altitude slider that lets you choose which wind level you’re looking at. Haven’t found that yet here.

It looks really cool, but all the numbers jiggle around when I pan the map on my phone (Android, Chrome)

really cool, but the search field doesn't update the map after I type in a new location. (safari Version 26.3 (21623.2.7.11.6))

		Thanks for catching that, and including browser details.

Neat. Overlay city labels are doubled-up over map tile city labels?
