I just tried the NOAA website, and am impressed. Maybe I'm behind the times, but if you haven't used it, it's worth a look.

Here's another that's one of my favorites, you can see TAFs and METARs about as fast as they are available on-line anywhere (call your briefer for the most up to date information), and the map presentation is pretty useful. Be sure to try the options at the bottom of the map frame:

p.s. Sorry, lower 48 only.

check out http:aawu.arh.noaa.gov

An alaska site, but with links to others. A good starting reference

Don't forget, though, that the only place you can get a COMPLETE pre flight briefing is from Flight Service.
