Bookmarks: World Wind Map
IN RUBRIC "IN BOOKMARKS" We talk about websites and online services - both useful and completely useless, but funny and amazing - which, in fact, should be added to favorites or added to the RSS-feed.
Earth
The site with the simple name "Earth" is suitable for those who are looking for a boring way to study geography: this is an interactive map of the world winds, and it is also very beautiful. It can track the direction and speed of all winds in the world (data is updated every three hours). The map can be moved and brought closer: it’s impossible to look at the winds over a particular city, but over the country completely. A separate pleasure is to look for cyclones on the map and watch them move. True, the developers cannot guarantee the complete accuracy of the data: the weather data are predicted by the supercomputer.
