Seasonal and regional, but whenever there is a hint of snow in western Washington state, I start reading posts by a UW meteorological professor: http://cliffmass.blogspot.com. He's acutely focused on the "perfect storm" of conditions needed for any significant amount of snow in our region.

Before I moved to Texas I followed Cliff almost daily for new posts. He was especially detailed when any "pineapple express" or snow storms would come along. Way more useful info than komo4/king5/etc.

http://www.fonerbooks.com - because of the "content first" design, and because its demise was caused by a major change in the Google search algo that promotes social media hype and interaction more than readable and valuable information. It has been an inspiration for many years.
