I'm getting back into boating on the Albemarle Sound and am looking for an app for my iPhone to give me ideally chop conditions, wind speed & direction.

The Marine Weather Forecast gives good information. I'd like to have a second source on my iPhone.
Thanks

Try the windalert app.

Check out Windy.com
Not sure if they have an App. That website has dam near everything

Most sailors I know use Windy, good real time wind directions and velocity. ...and they DO have an app available. I have it on my phone.

For kayaking I've used the NOAA marine forecast and Windy. If I'm going to be anywhere near Jennettes I use their conditions page. I've found Windy to be decent for real-time, but their forecasts, even just hours away, can be hit or miss. Being in a kayak I'm a bit more sensitive to a 5-10 mph variance than you'd be in a boat so maybe the Windy forecast is good 'nuff for boating.

I just wanted to say welcome to boating on the Albemarle! We’re going on 15 years now with a boat docked out back. However crowded the beaches and land based establishments are, being out on the water is always a completely different experience with almost no one around at all, and never ever a crowd. Fishing, crabbing, tubing, cruising to some favorite boat reachable restaurants, or just anchoring out by the community beach. You’ll quickly get used to the does and don’ts. Good luck!
