For lake sailing is there a need for something like this?

I sail on Spruce Run (NJ), and water levels are iffy every year, so I built something to help me decide the best day to go sailing there.
I showed this to a friend when I was moving my boat into summer storage and he told me to post here, maybe more people could see a use for this and i could build this for other lakes.

Hopefully, this does not fall under self-promotion, just honestly wondering if this would be useful for more people as it has been for me.

hey, i totally get wanting all that info in one place for your lake sailing. i've been using WeatherWisp lately and it's fantastic for checking all those details like wind speed, hourly breakdowns, and the full 7-day forecast. it's super clean, no ads, and the live radar helps a lot when i'm planning my trips for places like Hefner. you can check any city instantly and it loads really fast.

Not a lake sailor, but I support this venture. Even if this post doesn’t gain traction, i think you should stick with expansion.

I think that's great. I'd love to have all of that info in one place for my local lake. As it is now, I check Predict Wind and then the USGS website for lake level.
