Eh, 70 percent accurate. Unscientifically, I find wind prediction more reliable than wave height.

I check out loads but favour AccuWeather.com. Seems to get our treacherous weather patterns most of the time.
Safe sailing

Tried the ones listed all nfg.70% is a very generous estimate.When it comes to tropical weatherunderground is best.marc

I also think weather prediction accuracy can vary by location. Some are just more or less predictable than others.

Am at present in La NOAA is very predictable,can predict they are wrong.marc

Forget wave height in general. When we were cruising we found that NOAA was wrong about 70% of the time (waves were usually double predicted).

Oh - also, a free GRIB viewer/program if you don't have something else that can display them (I use Rosepoint Coastal Explorer) - GRIB.US > Home
