Watching Irene – A Buoy’s Perspective

If you’re one of the 20 odd million in Metro NY and you’re wondering when and what this means, and you can’t get enough info, I give you some buoy data to watch after.

Buoy # 44065 is NY Harbor, # 44025 is South of Islip, Long Island.

When you scroll down you get this info:

I’m not sure what the “bend” points are on the coming storm. It depends on the tides. There is nothing good to report on that either.

If wave heights get to the levels measured off the coast of N. Carolina today are achieved around NYC, well, watch out.
