    Default Kentucky & Barkley fishermen


    What weather forecast site do you find most reliable, particularly with regards to wind?

    At what point will forecasted wind speed keep you at home?

    Here is the one I trust and use:

    https://weather.com/weather/today/l/16784:21:US

    The weather station is just south of Jonathon Creek off Hwy 68.

    I prefer AccuWeather.com when it comes to wind. Use it for both hunting and fishing. I use the MyRadar app on my phone for rain. It will use your location of your phone to pinpoint where on the water you are and then you can zoom in to see how close the storms are. It is very accurate.

    Put in the zip code and then hit the "Forecast Map".

    https://www.wunderground.com I like the way this is laid out, I use this for hunting and fishing. Although it seem regardless of he reports, the winds re always much worse on the lake.

    They are so large and open any winds will likley pick up a few mph when compared to land which has hills, trees, etc. I always figure it to be stronger than the surrounding area.

    Thanks Buddy - I like that one. I bookmarked it, but I did change the speed to MPH and the temp to Fahrenheit though.

    My brother-in-law is a pilot in the Air Force and he told me they use Wunderground as it is the most accurate. There is also a Wunderground Storm app they use that helps with approaching storms (shows miles away, etc) and they also use MyRadar Pro. I assume they are gonna have the most accurate resources.
