Check the Weather Forecast

  I have been using NOAA for years as a tool for forecasting weather in the unpredictable Olympic Mountain Ranges.  Rather than physically scrolling over an area with a mouse click to get more of a 'pin point' prediction.  I stumbled on this nice regional map feature.  This probably isn't anything new for some of you, but it was to me; so thought I'd share.  Feel free to add it to your bookmarks, as I did. Try it out....

A hiker can find weather forecast for popular areas such as Hurricane Ridge, Elwha valley, Sol Duc, Hoh Rain Forest, Olympic Coast and Quinault Rain Forest. This is very important for a safe and enjoyable trip into the mountains. You should also check the tides before walking on the coast.
