Want to find the weather anywhere in the US?
Enter forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php and when you're there you can enter cityname,st and it will take you to the nearest airport weather station.
If you have the latitude and longitude, plug those into the link below and then copy and paste to get the weather at the closest airport, whether major or county general aviation:
forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=41.8832&lon=-87.6324
The reports include the four character airport identifier, such as KMDW for Chicago Midway (link with lat/lon). That page includes a pictorial four day forecast, text seven day forecast, the location of the airport, links to the three day rolling history by hour, the hourly weather forecast, radar and satellite images, a printable forecast and many other things.
Scroll to the bottom of the page and there are links to things you may not know are available, including Active Alerts, Past Weather, Record highs, lows, rain, snow, Forecast Models (So that's what the TV weather guy was talking about ;-) GIS and many other bits and pieces.
Probably more than you wanted to know ;-)
