Do you guys / gals know of a good smart phone app, or just a good website to use to monitor marine forecasts or wind conditions, for those mornings where you think it might be windy and aren't sure if you should head out or not?

Was thinking of heading out of HighPoint Marina at Texoma today with my wife and dog to check out Treasure Island but it looks like it might be blowing pretty good... forecast says 20 mph. Might be too much for my little flats boat. What is Texoma like with 20 mph winds, pretty hairy i'm guessing?

I use a variety of weather apps. I like MyRadar, Fox4 WAPP, Windfinder, and AeroWeather. With these I am usually prepared.

Wind Alert
I use this app for the wind. It's accurate on the predictor and graphs out the day. Here in West Texas its a must. You can set it for fishing as well. Oh and it looks like I am going fishing today with calm winds.
