the weatherchannel website has been pretty accurate for NE texas..they have a fishing graph too. The graph is relative to pressure and moon phase and gives you an idea of best times to fish.

wunderground is who I use, as well and they do a pretty good job of forecasting winds
If you fish Fork, use Alba, TX as your search criteria. The extended forecast is for Mineola but the current conditions data is from a weather station in Ray Branch.

I use NOAA and they have an hourly graph that shows about evrything you want (Temp.,Heat Index,Precip., Sky Cover,Dew Point, Wind Speed,Wind Direction, etc.) On the main page type in the city, State that you want to look at then scroll down about 3/4 of the page and on the right side of the screen is hourly forcast. It will show two days from the time you enter the search. You can even go 2 more days ahead, and if I'm not mistaken you can 2 more days from that. That would be six days worth. It is pretty accurate for todays weather but I haven't looked like 4-6 days out and see if it is still accurate. They update it all the time, so of coarse the closer the forcast is to realtime the more accurate it is going to be. www.nws.noaa.gov

all of the sites mentioned are using similar data and usually (depending on last updated time) have the same results for temp, cloud cover, and precip. I average accuweather (high estimates) and wunderground (historically low estimates) for wind and that will usually get you pretty close. If wunderground shows 20+ for winds on hourly page, stay home!

mothernature.com???  If I get wet it's proly raining. A sunburn? It's proly clear and sunshiney. All those other web sights are just a guess. They're not in control.
 Good luck and safe fishin'!!!!

I'll check 4 or 5 different sites and whichever one has the worst forecast, I'll add a little more "worseness" to it and go with that.
