Why this sourceResolved on the coastal marine grid at NDBC 44018, the selected marine reference point for this destination.

Data timingMarine grid updated · 27 min ago

ConfidenceThe source is 30.3 NM away, so local conditions may differ.

Wave-height forecast resolved at NDBC 44018. Used before Boat or Nope's observed-buoy fallback when the grid reports usable wave heights.

NDBC 44018

RoleChecks recent observed wind, waves, and water temperature and helps fill gaps when the marine grid has no usable wave value.

Why this sourceChosen from the nearest aviation candidates that returned a current METAR or TAF report.

Data timingLatest METAR observation · 33 min ago

ConfidenceThe selected source is within 25 NM of the destination.

Nearest aviation candidates: KHYA 11.8 NM, KEWB 21 NM, KPVC 22.1 NM.

Hourly seas: NWS coastal marine-grid wave height is preferred when available. Gaps fall back to the latest NDBC wave observation projected with forecast wind; fallback values are planning estimates, not NOAA wave forecasts.

Verdict: Go, Caution, No-Go, or Incomplete is derived from the boat limits you select for wind and seas.
