There are a lot of different ways to get current weather information. One of the best ways to see weather patterns over space is to use a surface weather map to see what is happening in the atmosphere around you. Outside magazine provides a useful description of surface weather maps and how to read the information that is contained in one at https://www.outsideonline.com/2414872/how-to-read-surface-weather-maps. There are a lot of different places to get these maps. One of these is https://www.iweathernet.com/weather-map. The time on the maps is Greenwich Mean Time, which meteorologists often call Z. Right now in Georgia, our local time is 4 hours behind GMT, but after daylight saving times ends on November 1, we will be 5 hours behind, so keep that in mind.
