    Wind forecast while at KY Lake

    What website does everybody use for a wind forecast while at KY Lake? I know theyre all just a guess but figure some are more reliable than others. Nothing worse than seeing them call for 5mph and get out there and it starts blowing 20

    I use the Windfinder app.

    I like accuweather.
    Standard rule at Ky lake for me is: add 5 mph to east/west wind and add 10mph to south/North wind.

    Have tried them all and www.windalert.com is the most accurate forecast for me by far. Still always add 5 mph to forecast when it is north or south wind. I use zip code 42044 there for my map on that site.

    I use a weather rock and it is 100% accurate. You take a rock and tie it to a string and hang it up...when the wind is blowing it moves, when its raining its wet, when its sunny its dry and when its white its snowing.

    I use the WeatherBug app. Remember to also add 7-10 mph when fishing those lakes.
