Conditions at a glance

What stood out in the forecast

Wind

Fair

15 kt · BF 4

Sustained to 15 kt · gusts to 25 kt · BF 6

Beaufort 6 — manageable for experienced crews but not relaxing. Reef before open water, plan a route with lee shore options, and expect harder docking and mooring picks.

Seas

Good

0.0 m

Significant wave height 0.0 m

Relatively modest seas today (swell ~0.0 m). Still evaluate harbor entrance and wind against any tidal stream using local pilot notes.

Rain

Poor

82%

15.3 mm total · 82% peak chance · 21 wet hour(s)

21 hour(s) with meaningful rain risk — expect reduced visibility, saturated decks, and slower reaction times. Full waterproof layers and clear eyewear help; consider delaying if comfort and sightlines matter for your route.

Air temperature

Good

28°C

Air 26–28°C · feels like 26–31°C

Comfortable air temperatures for deck work, but water temperature may still be much colder — a dip without proper gear can shock even on a warm day.

Visibility

Good

2.7 nm

Lowest 2.7 nm · best 5.4 nm today

Generally clear sightlines (about 5.0–5.4 nm). Good for spotting traffic and shoreline references — still verify charted marks; glare and spray can fool you even on “clear” days.

Barometric pressure

Good

1012 hPa

1012 hPa → steady

Pressure is steady — no strong synoptic system pushing through on this snapshot. Local wind, sea breeze, and geography still dominate near shore.

UV / sun

Poor

UV 10

Very high index — limit bare-skin time on deck. · peak near 13:00

UV 10.0 is very high — water reflection adds exposure you do not feel on land. Broad-spectrum SPF, hat, lip protection, and hydration reduce fatigue; consider shade breaks if you are out all day.
