I have spent a fair amount of time on the NOAA website and I really like the capabilities of the NBDC, but it seems like most of the places I plan to boat only have half of the information listed. Why don't they list "wave height" for instance on the bouy inside of grays harbor? Back to top. Posted: Thu Jun 27, pm Post subject:. There is no anemometer on the buoy.

The NDFD is one example of this transformation. You can provide comments on this web service from the following page. The NDFD is updated no more than hourly. We request developers using this SOAP service for local applications only make a request for a specific point no more than once an hour. The database is currently updated by 45 minutes after the hour. Figure 1 provides a graphical view of the process. You can download several simple sample client applications by clicking on the following links:. NOTE : These clients are examples only and will not run as is. To run the script, you will need to install a number of supporting software applications. You can review the readme file for additional information on using the sample clients.

I understand the need for constant change but I'm also a "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" kinda guy. This gives decent predictions several days out and has predictions at several times throughout the day. However, if you know of a free data feed that supplies that data then I certainly encourage you to build a plugin that provides that data - that's why we built the plugin API. It is mostly for wind and kite boarding. I have found this forecast to be very accurate for my areas. The NWS forecast database, interestingly enough, also provides only a hour probability-of-precip forecast. If it didn't, Google [Bot] Logout [ Google [Bot] ]. In any case, here's the AppleScript. The first field is the number of seconds since midnight. The below script will create the weather variables in Indigo if they don't exist, so there's no Indigo changes that you need to do, other than, perhaps, creating a Scheduled task to run the below script as an external script file, not an embedded one on a regular basis. While I'm sure accuracy of the precip forecast drops as you go farther out, that's true of ALL forecasts. I believe there was a feed I found that had forecast information but we decided to not to use it for several reasons: It would have been challenging to match the NOAA weather station ID we use for the first feed to the forecast data feed since the data comes from two completely different systems at NOAA. Weather conditions look like crossing the bar would be no trouble at all with only a 4' swell with very little wind. C-Dawg sold November

But for hours farther out, only 1 hour probabilities are given. All times are GMT - 5 Hours. Time values lower than the current time, represent seconds from midnight of the next day e. Some buoys are specific in what they measure. This site is the most useful I have found for predicting ocean conditions. There's one time period per line. It is mostly for wind and kite boarding. The current in Grays Harbor can be pretty strong and will carry your pots off in a heartbeat. View previous topic :: View next topic. My only concern is the North wind against a South swell, but with only a 10 kt wind and 4' swell it should be okay.
