That's the site i use to watch for wind patterns at San Luis to figure out when I can forecast low wind to go after those Stripers. I even wrote a Python script to mail me the day's wind chart at midnight. Yeah I am an incurable geek  :smt011

Don't forget about the overlay in google earth. Download the KMZ file and open in google earth.

Having trouble finding what I think may be an accurate forecast for waves/wind at HMB. Most sites list Mavericks-maybe because they are surfing sites. Which one do you guys use to determine an area that is fished there? Like heading south from the harbor towards the Ritz for instance?

The chart catalog now includes pdf you can download for offline viewing or printing. The most impressive are the rnc charts. It is like google map where you can keep zooming in for more details.
