WeatherStar 4000 is a free website that recreates the look and feel of a vintage Weather Channel local forecast, complete with accurate visuals and optional CRT scanlines. Most importantly, it offers a period-accurate lowfi-funk soundtrack that's perfect to chill or study to.
The site is the creation of programmer Matt Walsh, who made it as a variation of an older project that aimed to accurately re-create the vintage format. Walsh's site offers new features, including a scrolling hourly forecast and support for wide screen.

This combined national programing with computer generated local forecasts, broadcast every 10 minutes at minutes that ended with the number 8 (the segment was called Local On The 8s). This meant you could turn on your TV anytime you saw an eight at the end of your clock to see an extremely local up-to-date forecast.
