Although weather can pose some challenging moments, I'm struck with the idea that we have not only a mappable moment but a teachable one as well. In our recent past, the US dealt with Irene and a substantial earthquake in Virginia. The weather keeps coming! I live in southeast Louisiana where we're watching now TS Lee get ready to pound us with rain, rain, rain. While the folks here make preparations for possible flooding conditions, particularly on lakes, canals and rivers, the rest of you out of harms way can look at the maps of it all. I created a map from a myriad of weather related data that's shared within
www.arcgis.com.
Take the map below (at ArcGIS online:

Check out many teachable, mappable data sets in the online library and make a map!
