The FishWeather link provides a great map of the Hatteras Offshore Area with the wind speed and direction for up to 4 days out.  If you change it to the GFS model forecast in the MODEL: drop down tab it will give you the Hatteras Forecast out 7 days.  This tends to be the most accurate forecast model for the Offshore waters of Hatteras.  We usually go off this one and the Noaa marine forecast link.  If a yellow error screen pops up when you clink the Fishweather Link just keep clicking on it until the weather link pops up.  There is a glich in their system sometimes that cause an error message but usually goes away after 2 or 3 clicks.
