Hey guys,

thanks for your help. I trust NWS/NOAA for their ocean forecasts.

What about the gorge? ikitesurf , wind alert, NOAA(usually I have trouble with their forecasts)?

I really, really want to kite on sat and am crossing my fingers for some riding E of hood, but the forecast keeps changing (usually for the worse).

thanks for the wiseness,
Kevin

Your mom calls me every morning with a forecast and a cup of coffee.

It's a great resource and it's completely free.
