Anyone know of a website that can be used to find places that are
interesting, weather-wise?

Yup.

This one will show you real-time anywhere in the world.

I usually click Water Vapor, Full Disk, 8 Animation. The various satellites
are listed at the top.

There was a website devoted to sim enthusiasts that showed the top twenty
or so airports with the most challenging current weather. I am searching
Google now for it but not having any luck.

Perhaps someone else will remember the website.

Just got home to my PC and my collection of sim links and I found the link.
Sadly, it looks like the site is no longer available:
