Skip,

I don't know which NOAA forecasts you keep talking about, but unless you're
looking at the coastal forecasts, what you see over weatherfax is for off-
shore and can't be applied to the ICW or along the coast.

Next, since you're along the coast of the US, I would suggest simply
turning on a TV and watching the local forecasts. I think that you'll find
them more accurate than anything that you'll get from NOAA.

When you have internet connectivity, here's a resource for local
weather that I like:

http://www.weatherunderground.com/cg...arleston%2C+sc

That URL is for Charleston of course but you can get their forecasts
for any location. They also have links to the NWS/NOAA information,
local radar, and a lot of others. Their long range forecasts are
usually somewhere in the ballpark.
