JimH,
They update the weather every 15 min. on accuweather.


Thanks but I knew that. I would prefer to read personal accounts vs.
Accuweather, a source not entirely accurate. I also do not rely on NOAA
weather/sea condition reports and forecasts.


That really is a pretty good point. Locally, sea conditions are
typically worse than reported. I can't give you are really good answer
other than NOAA, however. The trip was cancelled due to predicted
conditions 45 miles offshore..... where they intended to be, right
now. I can pretty much guarantee that you wouldn't want to be out
there right now... *I* sure wouldn't......

Yep..........personal observations are *always* more accurate than NOAA or
any other sea condition reporting agency.
