Personally, I’ve been using cleardarksky.com: https://www.cleardarksky.com/csk/

Once you dial in a local observatory, you’ll enjoy hour-by-hour visibility forecasts. It’s been invaluable for my unassisted-eye stargazing activities!

Oh, sure, but that's next-level nerdery above "I just want to find a dark site" :)

It's also invaluable for any assisted star gazing. Turns out driving out 4 hours into the middle of nowhere only to be stuck in the clouds is just not that fun, with or without telescopes. Ask me how I know ;)
