Is there a site where I can get reasonably reliable extended forecast information? On checking AccuWeather and Yahoo Weather, the difference in their temperature prediction is as much as 7 F degrees for one particular day!

Check "Today's Weather" at the top of the Board. Please remember, the best supercomputers and models in the world could not predict the accurate movemement of hurricanes Charley and Jeanne farther than 24 hours ahead. Weather forecasts are a prediction, and they are subject to substantial variation, especially this time of year.

The weather here is dated December 1, with predictions for a couple of days, which have long since passed.

Where can we tune in while in TC to get the daily weather forecast?

Many thanks for your help!

If you can figure out weather maps this site can help it will estimate what might happen for the next 10 days. Looks like it might be cold and windy.

Listen to Cruiser's Net every morning at 8:15 on VHF 68. You may not be able to get it on a handheld, but you can usually find someone on the docks who is listening. They repeat the weather at 9:00.
