Elliott Frear put over the corner which led to Forest Green's clinching goal
Forest Green came from behind at a blustery New Lawn to inflict a third successive defeat on Dover Athletic.
The visitors went ahead when Nick Deverdics drove home after Stefan Payne tapped a free-kick to him.
James Jennings levelled by turning in a corner and Darren Carter cut in soon after to fire Forest Green in front.
The third came when Andy Rafferty failed to keep out Elliott Frear's wind-assisted corner and both sides hit the woodwork in a frantic finish.
The victory kept Forest Green just one point behind Cheltenham at the top of the table, while Dover slipped three places to sixth.
Pennock on Forest Green v Dover
Forest Green boss Ady Pennock told BBC Radio Gloucestershire:
"We managed the first half very well. We knew what the conditions were going to be like in the second half because we'd checked the weather forecast.
"Collectively, as a group it's been an absolutely fantastic week for this football club.
"We've come a long way today and the conditions were terrible.
"It's about attitude, we've shown we can do both. We can play football and work hard and roll up our sleeves."
