Check out this
website from NOAA that has clear air turbulence forecasts for N. America, the Atlantic and the Pacific. It shows where the likelyhood of clear air turbulence might occur. Check it out about a day before your flight to get an idea of what to expect. Granted, this only covers clear air turbulence, not turbulence caused by clouds and weather systems, but it useful nonetheless.
