We all know that apps are a convenient and popular way to access wind & wave forecasts, marine observations, weather radar, and to prepare the most favorable route for your passage. However, it doesn’t take long to lean that not all apps are created equal. Join Mark Thornton, president of LakeErieWXX and veteran GLCCSchool presenter, on Tuesday, January 7th as he walks you through the fascinating but sometime confusing world of Weather Forecasting Apps.

Mark Thornton is one of the foremost weather authorities on the Great Lakes and his company LakeErieWX has become a “go to” source for many, many Great Lakes cruisers and racers. Mark has been forecasting Great Lakes weather for almost 20 years and is, himself a Great Lakes cruiser.

Be sure to watch for Mark’s other marine weather webinars airing in February and March --- Great Lakes Weather Esseentials a  four-part series and Understanding and Avoiding Thunderstorms.

Register now at the Great Lakes Cruising Club School. And, don’t forget all GLCCSchool webinars are free to GLCC members
