What do you guys think of noaa weather? I hate how they change the forcast so much.

If you use the point and click it says 5-10kns of wind if you do zone forcast its 5-10 with gusts to 20. WTF thas a big diffrence

What do you guys think for a plymouth to the bank run tomorro in a 25ft cc

a 50 to 100 miles is a lot of fetch and can cause significant variation in wind speed.


Obama cut their budget so their new super computers are no longer available or forecasts.

I use sailflow and buoyweather 2 day free forecast to judge whether to go or not. Looks a little sporty ride out and laydown in the afternoon worse case. Vice versa on Sat
