I like Willy Weather. They have a web site and an app. I also use the Fishing Weather app and the NOAA pinpoint Marine Forecast. I also have the Magic Seaweed app but use it less. Below are screenshots of Willy weather.

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope.  ~John Buchan

Sailflow has wind forecast for every three hours. It has been very good for the north coast for 3-4 days out. I just enter monterey bay and then zoom in on the area I want.

Here’s another vote for Willy Weather. I have not used it much, but when I was in Santa Cruz a couple weeks ago, it predicted that the wind would make several major changes in direction throughout the morning, and it was amazingly accurate. It also did a better job on the wind intensity than the sites I usually look at. Maybe they just got lucky, but I plan on consulting it (along with NOAA and surfing sites) from now on.
I don't like stuff that sucks.
