With the storms coming through this week, let's talk about weather!
What is your favorite forecasting app?
Who has the best forecast for where you're sailing?
We are fans of Space City Weather but we are always looking for more data to compare. Share your sources with us!

Houston will face the threat of heavy rainfall every day this week, but at the same time we also have some uncertainties. It is worth paying close attention to the weather in the coming days. There is a fair bit of nuance in the forecast, so please read carefully.
