Weather:
Weather Forecasts, especially longer term, are subject to interpretation and change. I prefer comparing three for similar forecast projections.
Goat Rock Beach: Super Forecast Wind predictions are usually pretty good. Sometimes the prediction can arrive a day early or a day late. Even slight changes in wind direction can result in changes in local winds on our twisting Russian River. Long term, rain verses mist or fog, forecasts may not be that accurate, but the current day is usually pretty good. www.windfinder.com/weatherforecast/goat_rock
Jenner: 7 Day: Rain Forecasts are usually Good: Predictions of 30% or less usually do not bring actual rain. Wind speeds are pretty good forecast.weather.gov/afm/PointClick.php?lat=38.44970&lon=-123.11400
Jenner: 10 Day: I use this simply to track the predicted longer term trends. The real time wind speeds are not that accurate. www.weather.com/outlook/recreation/boatandbeach/weather/tenday/95450?reportoption=local&lswe=95450&lswa=BoatAndBeachTenDayForecast&product=local&from=locator
