it is actually a very easy process. Example: The weatherman forecast 5-10 mph early, then increasing to 15-20 in the afternoon. It translates to 5 + 10 = 15 mph hour before 9am (+/- 3 hours) increasing to 10 + 20 = 30 immediately after noon. The weathermans computer uses the "-" instead of "+", apparently their keyboard is missing the + key.

The Taft-inator...

I agree...in Texas, just add 10-12 mph to the forecasted winds..

If you have an iPhone there's an app called WX Alert USA that's excellent. It's hooked into real time National Weather Service data and it works not only as a forecast tool but also as a severe weather alert/tornado warning alarm.

Accurate weather forcast? Isn't that an oxymoron - like Military Intelligence or Humble, Texas???

Windalert.com.

It's originally developed for windsurfers, but is the best I have found.

It's one of the key ones use as a plane pilot... along with NOAA. Windalert.com provides very accurate hour by hour forecast.
