Default Useful weather data

Most important, who is your audience?

A meteorologist has access to TONS of data directly from their
respective national weather services. We like looking at computer
models as a basis for forecasting. Satellite, radar, and weather
ballon data (usually formatted into a skew-t plot) are also very
important.

The general population will probably look at the above information and
not know which way is up! For them, a graphical version of the 3-,
5-, 7-, or even 14- day forecast, along with postings on watches,
warnings, advisories, and radar and satellite shots would be more
beneficial.

A climatologist won't care about the day-to-day and prefers monthly
and yearly statistics.
