Peter et al;
There is Nav Canadian that has aviation weather and winds and weather in Canada on the following link. Notice that the button on the left column that says UPR WINDS less/than FL180. You select eastern winds and the time. It will show the flight levels (add two zeros to 30 for 3000 feet, 60 is 6000 feet altitude) wind direction and strength (each bar on the arrow is 10 knots, a solid arrow is 50 knots, I think)

There is a similar US aviation website that shows winds that has winds in U.S. and Canada as well:
http://www.aviationweather.gov/adds/winds/
Have fun.

Just noticed something. Apparently, wind (and weather in general) stops at the Canadian (and Mexican ) borders. Am I the only one who wonders about weather portrayals focused on the US instead of North America?
Wouldn't it be nice to have same coverage from Quebec, for example? Maybe we can suggest it.

A friend at The Nature conservancy forwarded this wind site, which is very intuitive.--
If you click on a state or region you can zoom in.
Hope others find it helpful in predicting the next big fallout.
Best, Peter - and thanks to Dan C.
