As pretending to be a short term weather forcaster in my new job, I have  the 
opportunity to see an interesting collection of weather related web  sites.  
One such site for the semi-serious weather junky is  _www.wunderground.com_ 
(http://www.wunderground.com)  which is short  for weather underground.
 
This site has two flavors, one is totally free and includes some but not  all 
the features.  The other costs $5.00/year and gives you a username and  
password to the more advanced features like storm tracking, radial velocity,  
echo-tops and more.  Those features are the ones most useful to me as a  flight 
director, but I am sure that others may tickle your fancy more.   Updates appear 
in 6 or 10 minute increments for the radar, and typically every  15 or 30 
minutes for satellite images.....
 
If you are a serious weather junky, this is a site to subscribe to.
 
Have a good weekend
