Long range forecasting is a contradiction in terms

My favourite site is NOAA.

Enter the ICAO code.

Choose a forecast dataset e.g. 0-184hrs.

Under fields to plot select "choose from below".

In the fields, select

- mean sea level pressure
- temperature 2m agl
- accumulated precip
- total cloud cover
- wind flags
- wind speed

(or whatever turns you on, but you can't mix the 2D and 3D plots, etc)

and type in the anti-ripping graphic security code at the bottom

It reckons the wind will be about 8-10kt S/SW.
