that same thingee has got a sealevel bouy that has some cool stuff on it. It's got one of dem anemometers that measures the wind speed by timing the speed of the airs molecules between to posts ! SO BITCHING
there is even a live south beach cam at the same site
some mornings i use it see if there is a swell for surfing.
and you know where I am. thats how similar the two south shores are.
also for night fishing. when I need to no if the sw'er has kicked in or not. rarely do i fish the south shore without a swell
I use a couple of free sites that work pretty well for sea surface temps(SST)
The best is probably marine.rutgers.edu and another is sstcharts.com.
When I go offshore in the late summer and especially late fall, I use ROFFS ocean forecasting and pay the extra for the commercial report. The ROFFS reports correlate all the data from all bouys in the areas you want to fish, as well as pinpoint the exact best locations to start looking based on up to the minute reports from fleet s up and down the eastern seaboard, commercial as well as charter capts and pleasure boats. The site is really worth the money when heading 100 miles plus!
microkitten. probably the best thing I ever learned on s-b.com
