What weather forecast?

I'm going to put up a page with a set of links to weather forecast sites. What are your favorites (and where do you live?)

Here in Cape Town, South Africa I use a combination of:

Bouyweather (paid)
Windfinder
Windguru
WindSMS (for the current stats at Cape Point)
and the Roman Rock weather station (for real time info - when it's up).

I have iPhone apps for the first three.

What do you use?

In australia one of the best weather sites is www.willyweather.com.au

It seems to have everything including tides, swell etc in specific locations. I've also been told that its accuracy is superior to most other sites.

Hi

I live in Cornwall and tend to use magic seaweed(international surf report)Has a local report for Falmouth Bay. But I tend to look out of the window and check on wind direction usually good for 12 hrs.

A good Australian site is:

www.seabreeze.com.au

It has 7 day weather, hourly wind speed and direction, swell direction and size forecasts and tide levels. It's designed for windsurfers but does the trick for surf skis as well.
