Just seen that the latest OpenGeoData blog entry (Weekly OSM Summary #47)
links to a weather map that uses OSM as map.

Reminded me that a UK weather website is using OpenStreetMap for its maps,
and that the free version of the live rain map might prove useful to people
out mapping. Does not work well on a mobile though. As well as being an
nice example of OSM use it could be very useful to a lot of us out mapping
(especially this summer!). The link for the live rain map is
http://www.netweather.tv/index.cgi?action=radar

There is a lot other overlays which you have to subscribe to view,
including a for better version of the live rain map which can be very
useful if you spend a lot of time outdoors.
