Check out www.windyty.com It will be interesting to see if its forecasts are accurate enough for ridge soaring. One nice feature is that you can change the altitude for the forecast (lower right side) to get predictions for ridge height in your area.

one thing I find interesting looking at texas/OK/NM. I know it's not the best season for the marfa dew line, but you can clearly see the convergence of desert air moving east and most air moving northwest from the gulf, which probably is depecting what we call the marfa dew line. kinda neat!
