The map displays live METAR station wind speed and direction data as rotated text symbols over a dark basemap. It queries NOAA wind observations from an Esri ArcGIS REST service, converts the responses from ArcGIS JSON to GeoJSON using Terraformer, and loads them into Mapbox GL JS as a GeoJSON source. Each station’s wind speed determines the symbol’s size and color, while wind direction sets its rotation, with speed thresholds mapped to a yellow-to-red palette.
