WeatherUnderground.com has just launched a new mashup of Goggle Maps with their weather information. The directions will now include weather-related information as well as directions.
After inserting the date and time of your trip together with the request for directions, within the directions portion of Google Maps, the temperature along the route is listed as well as possible rainstorms, snowstorms, icing, etc.
Not a bad idea — it’s good for both Google map users and provides another venue for WeatherUnderground to serve up weather information.
The roadtrip section on WeatherUnderground.com can be found at wunderground.com/roadtrip
The weather site also have an excellent planning tool for anyone thinking about a trip to a national park. The site provides weather information 50 national parks in an easy-to-click-to format.
Both go to show that WeatherUnderground is working to make the site better for travelers making plans for a roadtrip.
