HobartWinds
HobartWinds is from the stable of the popular applications Bay Winds and Bay Winds Heavy.
It is designed to provide up to the minute information about the wind in and around Hobart, Australia for sailors, windsurfers and kitesurfers.
HobartWinds provides
1) Distance to the Points of Presence, so you can see which ones are more relevant to you.
2) Wind sequenced by PoP's near you
3) More detail on weather conditions at the PoP.
4) Wind portrayed on a Google Map so you can see where the wind is (select the pin on the map...)
5) Graph of the last 24 hours for all wind locations.
This is the one of a series of applications for each Australian City - MelbWinds, SydWinds, BrisWinds, AdelaideWinds and PerthWinds.
