I'm wondering if we could do some cool visualizations on maps...

So I think a map is a great idea. We can display the resorts on the maps. Only the resorts we have in our config would appear, that way we can add resorts when we choose without having a search feature. Then we show the forecast for whatever resorts currently appear on the page.

I'm fine with either. Mainly just wanted to use something from a smaller company. In the end, as we discussed, it really depends on features and the free tier (the latter of which you said were comparable).
