If anybody has a Mac instead of a PC, there is a small dashboard widget called "Aviation Weather" that gives real time info (METAR TAF & LONGTAF) of a lot of airports, up to four together.
You can download it from apple's homepage.

We have METAR's, which are updated every hour, and TAF's, which are good for 24 hours and are issued every 6 hours.
