I'm fascinated by this site:
https://www.windy.com/
You can look at wind patterns around the world and zoom in on your area to see what the wind is doing, and adjust different settings to look at different things.
I'm watching a typhoon right now, but also fascinating for me is the confirmation that Tasmania sits right in the middle of a massive wind pattern. No wonder it is so windy here. I'm guess that's the Roaring 40s.
This is also an interesting site showing wind patterns:
https://earth.nullschool.net/
Click on the word "Earth" for different settings, and click anywhere on the globe to see the wind speed for that spot. Use your scroll to zoom in and out.
