What web sites/ apps are best for predicting the weather forecast on the east coast?

With 30-40% scattered tstorms over the summers your best bet is to keep going. Especially to faster drying areas. Sometimes it will rain but most of the times you will happy.

Mountain  forecast has some good info,  and is easy to  read,  but they aren't acurate for snowfall in the winter

For travel in the White Mountains I always check the Mt Washington Higher Summits forecast.  The website also good info about current conditions and webcams.  Even if I'm not going on Mt Washington/the Presidentials I still check this forecast.  I also check the point forecast on weather.gov.  In my opinion, weather.gov does the best job of account for the effect of elevation on wind/temperature/precip (with the exception of MWOBS).

The NWS also publishes special forecasts for Mt Mansfield in VT and Katahdin in ME.  I wouldn't be surprised if there was one for Mt Marcy in NY as well.

+1 for the National Weather Service at forecast.weather.gov their hourly charts are hard to understand at first, but once you get the hang of them they provide tons of good information.
