Hi all,
The folks at Google were kind enough to offer to host the code which generates the global transparent cloud map, so it should be working again now.
Here's the updated link. Enjoy!
Thanks very much to Frank Taylor for petitioning Google on my behalf.

This is really terrific. We can now see the present world-wide weather patterns without being deprived of seeing the features beneath. Thanks for making this available.

Yes, thanks to the Google Earth team for making this available again. Several people had complained at my blog when it stopped working. I've written a new blog entry about its re-introduction.

That is really awesome. Way better than any continental satellite view on the usual weather pages on the web.
