I am currently using http://www.sailflow.com to determine where the wind is blowing.

Does anyone have any other suggestions for online wind indicators that have coverage of NorCal?

I like wunderground.com for my area. They're usually a little conservative on wind forcasts. Where yahoo, and the weather channel are a might optimistic.

I use the already mentioned windfinder site together with wunderground and this map

You can click on your area for detail, remember the maps are in UTC time.

For inland sailors, away from major bodies of water, this is, IMO, the best.

Specificly for wind direction and wind speed forecasts. :)
