Surface Wind Forecast Guidance
This wind animation depicts forecasted hourly surface (10m above the water) winds for the next 30 hours.

If you go up a level by selecting the link on the left side "Return to GLOFS (http://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/ofs/glofs.html)" there is the same information for all the Great Lakes. Water Levels, Wind, Currents, Water Temperature and more.

If you didn't know about this before, I consider it to be very useful information.
