WIND and WAVES

I see on the anglers report that people had trouble getting an accurate forcast of the wind and waves. What is the address for the most accurate web site for people going out of Walnut or going out on the head boats?

The old report produced by, I think, the PFC at Walnut was very accurate but does not exist now.

    Go to google type in usairnet, go to aviation forecast, then pick Pennsylvania, then Erie, this gives you up to the hour wind reports, wind direction and probablitly of preciptation in 3 day forecasts. It doesn't give you wave heights but you can figure say if the winds out of the west at 20mph don't bother going on the lake. I live right on the shoreline and this is the closest one i've seen to wind and direction.
