This big map from the UNISYS Weather Server covers the whole US. Also please read the notes to the right from their FAQ on what a wind barb is before you click on the picture. I've found their map to be very helpful. My observations are that if you are down stream within a hundred miles of two big barbs then load up the short boards and head to the beach when you see the tree limbs start to move!

The circle represents cloud cover. The open (black) circles represent clear skies and filled circles represent cloudy skies. Varying degrees of fill represent how much cloud cover there is. The line coming out of the circle is called a wind barb. This represents the wind direction and speed. The line points into the wind (the direction the wind is coming from) and the number of barbs determine the wind speed in 10s of knots (roughly MPH). A small barb is 5 knots.
