I don't think they have a lot of money to really build them out in a way that the public could use them. <BR/><BR/>Here is a link that explains a lot of what is going on behind the CDIP modeling pages...<BR/><BR/>http://cdip.ucsd.edu/?nav=documents&sub=faq&xitem=nowcast&xdoc=rec-nowcastAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12486282789841401406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5078740324823783309.post-9825515951808101922008-04-23T07:53:00.000-07:002008-04-23T07:53:00.000-07:00Adam I've got a question for ya.

Recently Buoy 42 was showing consistent hourly readings for a southerly swell, in the two to three foot range at 15 seconds. The CDIP data showed the south at 1.6 feet at 14 seconds.<BR/><BR/>Since the CDIP gets it's data from Buoy 42, why the big difference?<BR/><BR/>Thanks!srfnffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04399633806074538641noreply@blogger.com
