 Sun Sep 16, 07 10:16 pm Best Wind Forecast Site |
 |

I aint payin' for iwindsurf no more!
What are peoples' favorite free sites for wind conditions/forecast?
Personally, I have trouble reading numbers when I take my brain medication so http://www.hatchcam.com/ is pretty cool or
http://www.cityofstevenson.com/cam_river.html
The problem is they both go black at night, and you can't tell whats it goin to do tomorrow until it happens... any help?
I heard there's one with graphs and colors and stuff... anybody? |

this one's alright. but they don't forecast over the winter months, same as iwindsurf. gives you a general idea if you don't want to pay for the meteorologist.

i agree with an earlier thread re: ikitesurf/iwindsurf.... we ought to have some type of human forecast over the winter months. even if it is a weekly guesstimate............................ ???????????????????? |

I use WindontheWater all the time! It is a sweeeeet site that has cams, forecast, windsensors, etc. I have noticed that from time to time the link appears broken. I usually just check back in 5 minutes or so. The link is correct.
...to the guy who built that site (can't remember your name) NICE WORK!  |

| Another thing I forgot to add was you can access the wind sensor information on your cell phone! But like magicmaker said, its not quite as accurate as ikite...but then again, its free! |
