Both the “West Sea Otter (46204)” and “East Dellwood (46207)” weather buoys have been out of commission for over 1 month. These provide important weather and sea state information to mariners transiting these regions. Sea Otter (46204)” and “East Dellwood (46207)” weather buoys have been out of commission for over 1 month. These provide important weather and sea state information to mariners transiting these regions. Initially I was told they would be down until the 3rd week of June. Now I understand they will be down until the end of August.
Not only do these provide information for vessels transiting these areas, but almost certainly the realtime data from those buoys should inform the forecasts for that area. I highly doubt similar buoys of importance in US waters would be down for this length of time.
Edit: actually close to 3 months now.
