Best Sites for Wind, Tides, Sunrise, etc?

I use the wind finder app for wind and the my radar app for live radar.

Click on the map above for your area. Marine weather is updated generally 4 times a day between 3:30-4:30am, 9:30-10:30am 3:30-4:30pm 9:30-10:30pm.

If you look at the link I provided it gives a time stamp on the forcast. For example if you view the forcast at 9:45am and the time stamped is 4:17am a new forcast will be out within the hour. If the time stamp is 9:40 the forcast is only 5 minutes old so don't expect a new forcast until 3:30pm.

Another note although the link gives a forcast 6 days out it isn't very reliable until it gets to one or two days in the future.

Nope just a fishing fool from private ponds to 100 miles offshore.

A little more advise: don't even read the sea size only use the wind speed. Lets say you have a 24' boat and want to go 25 miles offshore. 5-10 knots should be good

10-15 you will get bounced around and may even have to turn around. If my area has 10-15 and adjacent areas have 5-10 it should be good. If adjacent areas have more than 10-15 chances are you will turn around. Always check the forcase the morning you go out. The night before can have 5-10 forcast for the next day and 4 hours later it can change to small craft advisorys.

more than 10-15 don't even try it.

An example to my earlier post the current forcast for my area is stamped:

351 PM CDT TUE SEP 10 2013 which means

3:51 pm central daylight time on 9-10-13.
