Questions about buoy 44065

Where is buoy 44065?

How big are the waves at the New York Harbor buoy right now?

As of the Aug 27, 10:30 PM EDT report, 44065 shows 2.6 ft significant wave height on a 9-second dominant period from the ESE. Over the past 46 days, 36% of readings were under 2 ft and the biggest day reached 7.9 ft.

How windy is it at New York Harbor buoy 44065?

Wind at 44065 is 1.9 knots from the E, gusting 3.9. The strongest gust in the past 46 days was 41 knots.

What is the water temperature at New York Harbor buoy?

Water temperature at the buoy is 73.0°F. That is 1°F warmer than on July 14.

Why are some fields blank?

Waves are sampled every 30 minutes and pressure tendency is computed hourly, so most 10-minute rows carry no value for them. NDBC prints “-” (or “MM” in the raw feed). A field that stays blank for days usually means a sensor fault; NDBC lists outages on its station status page.
