ILLINOIS, UNIVERSITY OF .. AT URBANA-CHAMPAIGN - all types of data
http://covis.atmos.uiuc.edu/covis/visualizer
Interactive site with numerous options including surface and upper air weather map plots and analyses with or without satellite image overlays, and upper air soundings. Maps can be plotted on a white background for easier printing. However, font on surface and upper air maps is somewhat difficult to read.

Institute of Global Environment and Society (IGES) - NUMERICAL MODELS
http://grads.iges.org/pix/wx.html
Computer-generated weather and forecast maps from data supplied by the National Centers for Environmental Prediction of the National Weather Service, NOAA.

NOAA/NWS - National Centers for Environmental Prediction
http://www.ncep.noaa.gov/
Links to Tropical Prediction Center (TPC), Storm Prediction Center (SPC), Climate Prediction Center, more. Surface weather maps are at http://www.hpc.ncep.noaa.gov/html/fcst2.html. You will need to click on the surface weather maps link and then the forwarding link to reach the actual surface weather map page.

NOAA/NWS - Washington, DC area office
http://www.nws.noaa.gov/er/lwx/
Obviously, lots of local Washington, DC area "stuff." Many links for obtaining forecast and observational data nationwide.

PLYMOUTH STATE COLLEGE WEATHER CENTER

This one is an easy-to-navigate and interactive site with an incredible array of data. Using a frames format, you can locate observed weather maps (including "create your own" back as far as 24 hours), soundings, forecasts, and much more. National map plot with station model data is a bit crowded, but regional maps are "perfect". I'm still learning what is at this site, but I don't think you'll be disappointed with what you find. If you need a non-frames version, click on http://cyclone.plymouth.edu/make_no_frame.html
