I have not found a really good source for current Jet Stream analysis
and Forecast Charts.

This is the best one I've seen so far:
http://weather.unisys.com/ngm/init/ngm_300_init.html

Anyone got a better source? In the past I've seen similar charts from
NOAA or NWS[?] That had a white background and was quite a bit
clearer.

looking to upgrade my wx page:
http://www.southerneaglessoaring.com/storms.html

thanks
Chris

The best I have found gives up to 14 days out several different mb
levels. You can get jet stream and lower level forecasts. We use it
for wave and ridge planning.

Try... http://virga.sfsu.edu/crws/jetstream.html
I like the variety of forecasts, views and loops.
