Yes, I would say you would have a good chance of getting Pt Reyes..... at certain times of the day.... and that may not be the time of day they are transmitting the charts that you want.
Another small point... as you can see in the one below ... the fax for tropical waters doesn't give a whole lot of info.... the
current position of the ITCZ is their best feature.
Where you could be helpful to your friends would be if you could also get the sat pictures off NOAA... they are hidden in there somewhere... and tell them what you see.
The sats will show you the cloud build up with a developing low well before it is picked up and shown on the synopsis..... well thats my experience anyway.
