Wave Height, Wave Period, and Wave Direction

Wave heights for an area appear as variations in color. Different
colors indicate different wave heights, as shown in the legend.
The wave period indicates the time (in seconds) between
successive waves. Wave period lines indicate areas that have
the same wave period.
Wave directions appear on the chart using red arrows. The
direction of each arrow pointer indicates the direction in which a
wave is moving.

Viewing Fishing Information

The weather Fishing chart shows present water temperature,
present surface pressure conditions, and fishing forecasts.
Select Weather > Menu > Weather Menu > Change
Weather > Fishing.

Surface Pressure and Water Temperature Data

Surface-pressure information appears as pressure isobars and
pressure centers. Isobars connect points of equal pressure.
Pressure readings can help to determine weather and wind
conditions. High-pressure areas are generally associated with
fair weather. Low-pressure areas are generally associated with
clouds and the chance of precipitation. Isobars packed closely
together show a strong pressure gradient. Strong pressure
gradients are associated with areas of stronger winds.
Pressure units are shown in millibars (mb), inches of Mercury
(inHg), or hectopascals (hPa).
Colored shading indicates the surface temperature of the water,
as shown in the legend in the corner of the display.

stations. These readings are used to determine air temperature,
dew point, water temperature, tide, wave height and period,
wind direction and speed, visibility, and barometric pressure.
