Directions

Wave height is reported as significant wave height in meters. On the table there is also a computational value of the highest individual waves.

The buoys are removed before the sea freezes and redeployed in the spring when the ice has melted. That´s why there may not be data during winter time. Also, if the area is frozen, there is no wave forecast.
