* wind speed
* chance of precipitation
*sunrise/set -- yes, I tend to forget
The best I've found is the following view on The Weather Channel's website. It's the "fitness a& exercise" drop-down though I'm not sure that adds much. plug in your zip code and see if you agree:

Love to hear if you've found other/better weather webpages!
I'm about 50 miles south of you. I have been using
www.wunderground.com for a few years for all day rides. I find that the best accuracy is checking the weather the morning of your ride. That has worked very well for me. Almost 100%. But as you move farther away from the ride time it's not as good.
