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.Quote:

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.

Weather.com for me, although they were wrong for a while this morning.
Thanks Buddy - I like that one. I bookmarked it, but I did change the speed to MPH and the temp to Fahrenheit though.Quote:

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.

I use the windfinder app on my phone.
It depends on direction. Blowing from the NNW or SSE can play heck on either lake. 15MPH from either of those directions will cause me to rethink my schedule. 20MPH from any direction makes me reschedule most of the time. If I'm picking a day, I look for 6-12MPH with 6-9MPH being my lucky range.
