Regarding the Maps, several *RASP operators are coming up with some

nice user interfaces for the RASP using Google Maps. *They have made

Check out the UK RASP by Paul Scorer:

This is great, especially the Italian one. I would love to have such
maps for the NAM blipmap as well. I still find the NAM to be the most
accurate model, and it is available up to 3 days out.
