Winds should remain around 15 knots during this period. Winds shift to more NE to E by the end of the week with speeds at or below 20 knots.

What this buoy measures

This buoy is not reporting waves or water temperature. Conditions above come from the sensors it does carry, and the forecast, tides and sun times on this page are regional rather than measured at the buoy.
