Frustrated by the fact that I couldn't find "Isle Royale, MI" on the NWS website; I e-mailed the Marquette NWS P.O.C. about the issue. Got a nice reply saying that they'd be taking care of it. Does anyone know if there is any search string you can enter on weather.gov that will find Isle Royale? I tried Rock Harbor, Windigo and several other place names with no luck. I have to click my way there on the map.

It's filed under the "Recreational Report" area of NWS. Kinda hard to get to.

Try: http://iwin.nws.noaa.gov/view/validProd ... &node=KMQT

Also, if you use Wunderground, you use the "Wundermap" and see the temps from a few points on the Isle, along with weather history.
For Windigo:
