Uhh wtf? I use NOAA to get my weather, no ads, no bs.

I bookmark forecast.weather.gov with my location, which has that gif and other figures available on the page.
Radar.weather.gov is so based
A lot of the “private sector” weather services just scrape NOAA or other public-sector data and apply some branding to it.
