There are many airports across the country that are close to small boat ports, and those airports can provide a source of weather for a specific area, especially wind. With a google search for a Chart Supplement for the area, we can find phone numbers to the Airport Surface Observation System (ASOS) or AWOS.
The ASOS may also report the weather to websites like airnav, and there is the Aviation Weather Center website, but it is fun to call the number and listen to the up to the minute report for wind, temp, cloud cover and barometric pressure.
