Downloading Grib Data - jochen - January 13, 2006

Hi,
I just installed GPSNAVX and it works fine on my ibook G4, but I have no idea how and where I can download Grib data.
Does anybody know, where I can download such files, especially for the mediterranian and the winward Islands?

Will of course I wouid like you to sign up for MacWX which gives access to great high resolution GRIB data world wide.

In the meantime you can find low res GRIBS here..
(Scroll to bottom. Use stuffIt expander to extract from downloaded file)

I suggest opening the world chart at first as these GRIBs are one one degree increments. Zoom to fit chart into window so you can "see" the GRIB data.
