3. Are there any good online graphic representations of what the
atmosphere is doing, and particularly what the upper-level winds, such
as the jet stream are doing? I have the MeteoEarth app, but it seems
very limited to me. I can understand why people might not want such
data too widely available.


For the jet-stream, from the GFS forecasts the first snapshot is for
T=0, and the charts available include the winds at 200, 300 and 500 mb.
I'm not quite sure how high the jetsream is in terms of atmospheric
pressure, but I imagine that one of those will cover it.
