Weather Sites - What Are The Best Ones?

[andrewau]

Hey lads,

What are some of the sites that you use for when you want to take your boat out??

I know there is one that I cannot remember but it had 3 triangles, green - good, yellow - caution, red - bad

Does anyone know the site im talking about?

I also use this site

http://www.seabreeze.com.au/graphs/nsw.asp

Found it - but still would like to see what you guys use

WXMaps

I use BOM, Seabreeze and http://www.coastalwatch.com.

BOM & seabreeze gives broader view, coastalwatch has better beach/close offshore. I found BOM was not always detailed enough, Seabreeze seems good. Coastal has cameras also so I can check swell etc without leaving home, but has limited camera coverage.

Cheers, Steve

Hi Andrew

I like Dave's choice (WXmaps) for rain - it gives pretty accurate rain prediction for up to a week ahead. Farming buddies of mine use it all the time - only they are looking for rain, I am not!!

There is also this one for a 24hr read of all the data

or click on 48 hrs or individual graphs here
