Wind
Data and graphics in this section include both satellite products and numerical model outputs.
NOTE: These data and graphics are presented as experimental products. CarICOOS assumes no responsibility for the validity of the data for planning or executing marine activities.
"Windstreams" is a data visualization product developed for CaRA/CarICOOS. Click on individual "wind socks" to access near-real time data and model forecasts. Graphs provide a time-based record of observed wind speed in knots (bars) and direction in degrees (diamonds). Model output including past model output and forecasts are presented as a continuous line. WRF modeled forecast provided by CaRA/CarICOOS team.
Notice: The following station is currently out of service:
- Salt River Bay station in St. Croix has no new reports as of January 1, 2009. Only data available at this point are from forecast models. For more information visit this station's page at ndbc.noaa.gov
Buoy 41101, East of Martinique in the Western tropical Atlantic (14.600 N 56.201 W), has been added to WindStreams

WRF Model Coverage
"V"s are Virtual stations that present forecasts generated from computational models for the specified area.
"O"s represent observational data gathered by weather sensing equipment
"O M" are stations with observational data and forecasts for that area.
