I also like the windfinder.com site. I also use heritagecooperative.com-find the weather forecast button and enter the zip code for the area you are interested in. It will give you current radar, weather and forecast. I've found it usually accurate. For Erie conditions and waves I look at tgftp.nws.noaa.gov/data/raw/fz/fzus61.kcle.glf.le.txt for current lake conditions. This one sometimes is not very accurate so also look at other sites to get an overall picture.
