Show HN: My project : Load and display multiple wind-speed forecasts on one page

As an avid skydiver, I regularly check wind forecasts for multiple drop zones to determine which location is most suitable for the day of jumping. I was tired of manually entering each location each time I checked the weather forecast, so I created this app to simplify the process.

This web app will render multiple wind-speed forecasts on a single page for comparison. Once locations are entered in, the user can return to the page and refresh the forecast with a single click.

The app is nearly all client side, which is a new paradigm for me. The only server side component is a proxy script I made to get around a browser-side issue (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-origin_resource_sharing)

The locations are validated with the Google Geocode API, stored in a client-side cookie (jquery.cookie), and rendered with Raphael JS. Weather forecasts are provided by weather.gov. Additional UI goodies use twitter bootstrap and some custom scripting as glue.

Note: this was written a modern browser (tested with apple safari, and google chrome, IE 10)

Next iteration : client side app-building is fun, but I think I can improve response time by moving much of the weather.gov queries server-side. This will also allow me to add a slick "share these locations" feature to the app.
