The Washington Post is running a vote for people's favorite online Adobe Flash based radar display. In the running are Fox Weather, Weather.com, MyWeather, and Weather Underground.

Are there other Flash displays that they missed?

i wasnt aware that wunderground did an exclusively flash radar aside from the "zoom satellite" feature...
even though i try to avoid weather.com, i have found myself playing around with their google-earth radar which is actually pretty decent...it still kinda sucks, but its nice to clearly see roads and all that stuff...foxweather is very similar to weather.coms flash radar, but with a couple added features and a different appearence to the controls...
personally, i try to avoid flash-based radar on the internet because i just dont like the way they feel...with that said, i would be curious to see what a skillfully dynamic flash radar site could do...something similar to a weather-tap/GRlevel 2 mix that you can get online...
